    LT95 Overdrive

    Anyone tried an overdrive fitted to the LT95. Will the Isuzu kill it?

    Yes of course the Isuzu will kill it - you had better give it too me.

    I saw that you bought the o/d that I was procrastinating over.

    If I had known the market better it would have been mine but I decided to hold off.

    I hope it all goes well for you. Let me know what sort of nick it turns out to be in when you get it.

    Grumble, grumble, grumble.

    Cheers

    (and yes I am still in the market for one)

    Sorry Garry,
    But I have been looking for over a year. I'd prefer a 5sp box but don't have the coin at the moment. I'll put your name on it. When I'm done it's yours.
    Looking at 12-18 months (if it's suitable).

    I do not have personal experience but I was advised years ago not to bother - the Isuzu will kill it.

    yep the suzi will eat any bolt on overdrive you stick on the lt95 via the PTO housing Especially if you try to tow with it or climb with it set to overdrive.

    IF you really want more top end. source some 3.1:1 or better CWP sets and then put in the lower speed tcase gears but you still lose out on low range crawl speed. Which isnt a problem if your only doing it for a formed track runner or beach work but is going to hurt you if you go for niggly offroad work.

    Those $$$$ I paid to the other guys on the forum seem to be working out

    I fitted a fairy od to the lt95 in my old rangie. It was a big disappointment - lot of whine and they aren't very durable behind a 3.5 v8.
