Frequently asked questions

What is the LT77 needle bearing (FRC5678) for?
The FRC5678 needle bearing supports a mainshaft gear on the LT77 5-speed manual gearbox mainshaft, letting the gear rotate freely on the shaft. It serves the mainshaft gears inside the LT77 transmission on early Defender, Discovery 1 and Range Rover Classic.
What does 'to suffix G' mean for fitment?
The FRC5678 fits LT77 gearboxes up to suffix G only. The gearbox suffix is stamped on the casing, so check yours is suffix G or earlier before ordering, as later LT77 boxes typically used a different mainshaft bearing arrangement.
What are the signs an LT77 mainshaft needle bearing is failing?
A worn FRC5678 needle bearing on the LT77 mainshaft typically causes a whine or rumble in certain gears that changes with the gear selected. Left unattended, a failing mainshaft bearing can lead to further wear of the gear and shaft.
