Frequently asked questions

What does the STC3377 synchroniser kit do?
The STC3377 synchroniser kit keeps 5th gear and reverse engaging cleanly in the R380 five-speed manual gearbox. It brings the gear and mainshaft to matched speed before they mesh, removing the crunch and jump-out that develop as the cones and baulk rings wear. It fits Defender, Discovery 1 and Range Rover P38.
Which gearbox and models does the STC3377 fit?
The STC3377 fits the R380 five-speed manual gearbox used on the Defender (1987-2006), Discovery 1 (1989-1998), Range Rover P38 (1994-2001) and Range Rover Classic (1992-1994 from VIN JA610294). It serves the mainshaft 5th and reverse synchroniser. Confirm your gearbox is the R380 before ordering.
What are the signs the 5th and reverse synchroniser needs replacing?
Signs include 5th gear becoming hard to select, grinding or crunching when shifting into 5th or reverse, and 5th jumping out under load. These point to worn synchro cones and baulk rings. The kit is typically fitted during a gearbox rebuild rather than on its own.
What is included in the STC3377 kit?
The STC3377 kit includes the 5th gear, the reverse gear and the synchroniser baulk rings, covering the parts that wear in the 5th and reverse assembly. Fitting it usually means removing and partially stripping the gearbox, so it's typically a specialist job.
