Removal of transfer box

[snezza69]

I am going to remove the transfer box off a Disco R380 to replace it with a defender one as I am told the gearing is different.  I am going to have monster tyres on it.  Getting back to the point, to remove the transfer box do I need the gearbox to be in any particular gear or in hi / low ratio or is that not important.  Any help would be greatly received.

Thanks :oops:

Nah, none of that is important.

As muddyweb says, that isnt important, but remember things like your handbrake linkages, the mechanism for high/low ratio and difflock, speedo cable etc

There are a number of different ratios available in Defender t/fer boxes, but the ratio difference only effects the high range.
