Frequently asked questions

What is the FRC2470 layshaft ball bearing used for?
The FRC2470 is the rear layshaft ball bearing for the LT85 five-speed manual gearbox, fitted to V8 Land Rover Defender 90 and 110. It locates the rear end of the layshaft, the geartrain countershaft, in the casing and carries both radial and axial load.
Where does this bearing sit in the LT85 gearbox?
This bearing sits at the rear position of the layshaft inside the LT85 gearbox casing, supporting the countershaft that transfers drive between the input and output gears. It's the rear bearing specifically, not the front layshaft bearing, so confirm the position you need before ordering.
What are the signs this LT85 layshaft bearing needs replacing?
A failing LT85 layshaft ball bearing typically produces rumbling or growling from the gearbox that changes with road speed. It's usually replaced during a full gearbox rebuild, since running a worn bearing can damage the layshaft and the gears it supports.
