Frequently asked questions

What does the transfer box high range gear do?
It's the high range gear wheel inside the Series transfer box, transmitting drive through the high range path as part of the two speed transfer box mechanism that splits drive between high and low range.
Does this gear fit the Stage One V8 or 1 Ton Land Rover?
No. This gear wheel does not fit the Stage One V8 or 1 Ton models, which use a different transfer box design. It's intended for standard Series Land Rovers from 1948 to 1984.
Why would the transfer box high range gear need replacing?
Gear teeth typically wear or chip with age and mileage, causing whining, grinding, or difficulty engaging high range cleanly. Metal particles in the transfer box oil on a service drain are also a common early warning sign of gear wear.
Which Land Rover models does this transfer box gear fit?
It's listed for the Land Rover Defender up to 2016 and Series 2 and 3, covering Series production from 1948 to 1984, excluding the Stage One V8 and 1 Ton variants noted above.
