Mainshaft Gear for the LT230 transfer box, 26 teeth, 1.4:1 ratio.

This cross-drilled mainshaft gear is an internal component of the LT230 transfer box. It forms part of the gear train that distributes drive between the high and low range outputs and the front and rear axles. The 1.4:1 ratio and 26-tooth specification identify the exact position and function within the LT230 gear stack. The cross-drilling allows oil circulation to lubricate the gear and its mating shaft.

Frequently asked questions

What is the LT230 mainshaft gear (26 teeth, 1.4:1) for?
This mainshaft gear is an internal component of the LT230 transfer box, with 26 teeth and a 1.4:1 ratio. It forms part of the gear train that distributes drive between the high and low range outputs and the front and rear axles. It's cross-drilled to circulate oil.
Which vehicles use this LT230 mainshaft gear?
This 26-tooth, 1.4:1 mainshaft gear fits the LT230 transfer box on the Land Rover Defender (1987-2006) and Discovery 1 (VIN FA393361 to WA799999). Confirm your transfer box ratio before ordering, as the LT230 was built in several ratios.
What are the symptoms of a worn LT230 mainshaft gear?
A worn LT230 mainshaft gear typically causes whining from the transfer box, jumping out of range, or a rumble that changes between high and low ratio. Chipped or pitted teeth are common on high-mileage boxes. It's usually replaced during a transfer box rebuild.
How do I confirm this is the correct gear for my transfer box?
Confirm both the tooth count and ratio: this gear has 26 teeth and a 1.4:1 ratio. The LT230 was built with several internal gears of similar appearance, so matching the 26-tooth, 1.4:1 specification to your box is the reliable way to avoid ordering the wrong part.
