    David, PM C.H.T, he has done this to his 110.

    He is very happy with it too!

    Search will give you a lot of hits, especially in the Isuzu section where He posted most of the info on his conversion

    I have seen several posts that gave details of a company in Sydney area that have fitted several 4BD1's to rangies, and IIRC they also do the 4BD1 to R380 conversion.

    If you search here you should be able to find them.

    Be aware that early R380's can suffer from broken mainshafts. Later models have improved this and have larger bearings.

    John ( Bush65 ) I suspect you may be referring to KRL automotive in Sydney , I have spoken to them a while back about a Rangie conversion to 4BD1T.

    WOW!! Great web site, very informative. NOT!

    What did they tell you about the conversion?

    What boxes can they adapt to fit to a 4BD1?

    I am putting one in a rangie and haven't decided which box I am using. I am thinking about going auto, with a TH700r4.

    Dunno?!?

    Sorry neale ,

    Last I spoke to KLR was a while back ,initially I was planning on purchasing a 2 door rangie and converting to Izoozoo 4BD1T , but it was gonna cost big $$$ to have it done properly ( adapted to ) my existing R380 and LT230 Transfer case , By all means give em a call on tuesday and have a chat and they will be able to answer all your q's , sorry I'm not much of a Help.

    Late Edit:

    I found this informative Post by using the search.

    Conversion

    OK

    LT85 Santana bellhousing welded up and redrilled to suit R380.

    Thats it.

    Another place to try is British Offroad in Brisvegas a call, they convert the LT85 bellhousing to suit the R380 gearbox, last time i spoke to them it was about $900 plus the cost of the bellhousing's if they supplied them.

    Hope this helps
