Frequently asked questions

What is the Overdrive Layshaft (RTC7194) used for?
The Overdrive Layshaft is the laygear shaft inside a Fairey-type auxiliary overdrive unit that bolts to the Land Rover transfer box. It carries the overdrive layshaft gear within the gear train, providing the overdrive ratio on Series 1, 2 and 3 models.
Does this layshaft fit a gearbox with the LT95 transmission?
No. The RTC7194 layshaft suits the Fairey-type overdrive that mounts to the Series transfer box, and it's not suitable for the LT95 gearbox. Confirm your overdrive is the Fairey transfer-box-mounted type before ordering.
What are the signs an overdrive layshaft needs replacing?
An overdrive layshaft typically shows wear through whining, jumping out of overdrive, or metal debris in the oil. These usually point to worn gear teeth or bearing surfaces on the laygear shaft. Left unaddressed, it can damage other gears in the Fairey overdrive unit.
