The problem is that the 6X6 uses a LT95 and the 5 speed has a LT230 transfer box.
The output gearbox for the rear axle runs through the PTO at the back of the mainshaft and it is different to the LT230 type.
The LT95 is a stronger gearbox than any of the Rover or Santana 5 speed boxes.
The only way that you are going to achieve a 5 speed with 6X6 is to graft something like an Isuzu 5 speed box onto the LT95 transfer or add an after-market box behind the transfer box to power the rear axle.
You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

Yes in theory, but you would need to either:
(a) convert your 6x6 to a 6x4
(b) Adapt the LT95 PTO to an LT230 or set up an LT230 PTO to act in the same way.
(c) Cut the T-case off the LT95 and adapt it to the gearbox of your choice as was done with BW35 auto conversions in rangies.
