Oh ok, i have confused myself then. Will have a look in the book later and work out what is going on. All I know was it did and i wasn't very pleased with the fella for trying.

The PN of my handbook is actually TP1107 B - the B didn't show before because I had a ")" next to it.
My county is an '87 model with LT85/LT230T and 1.003:1 high range. Did you count the teeth on your gear, or are you just going from what is in the handbook. This is the first time I have heard of a 0.996:1 ratio for the LT230, so I strongly suspect it is a misprint (just as they have LR230T instead of LT).
The LT95 has the high range ratios:
0.996:1
1.113:1
1.174:1
1.336:1
The LT230 has:
1.003:1
1.192:1
1.222:1
1.410:1
1.667:1
The interesting thing to note is that NONE of these ratios correspond - so therefore I cannot see how the LT230 could also have a 0.996:1 ratio - but am happy to be proven wrong.
EDIT - on the subject of misprints in the handbook - on page 27 of mine it says TR230T !!! (everywhere else LR230T)
It should be LT230. The 'LT' is derived from Leyland Transmission.
Sorry, I was looking at the wrong line. Australian Supplement no. TP1107B on pages 26-27 shows following transfer ratios:-
3.9D LT95 0.996:1
3.321:1
3.9D LR230T 1.003:1
3.198:1
V8P LT95 1.336:1
3.321:1
LR230T 1.410:1
3.319:1
One wonders which direction they worked out the ratio as 1.003 is the repricrocal of 0.996 (1.004-0.997).
