hey guys.
wondering if anyone has any info on what gearbox should be used for this conversion. its a 84 rangie with a 3.5ltr v8. ive got a 5l statesman at my disposal. will the standard auto box hold up? the statesman has been changed to a manual. the wagon is goin to be used for comps if it makes a differance.
thanks in advance.

T700R4 or T400, depending on whether you need the overdrive or not.
T700 might be the easiest, and the lower first gear is an advantage.

Re: what box for 5ltr in a rangie
Is your Rangie 3spd or 4spd auto. If its 3spd is it a 727,C4 or a Borge Warner. If its a 4 spd or a 727 or C4 then these are all suitable with some mods to run behind the 5ltr. Out of the 3 the C4 would be my choice but it needs work to handle the HP, although unfortunatly there are no gearing options for the transfer behind the C4.YN67highlux wrote:hey guys.

Re: what box for 5ltr in a rangie
84 will be a TF727 and will be more than a match for a 5ltr and the LT230 behind it has the highest high range gear of any LT230 at 1.003/1 .
Saddle up tonto, its the not so loanrangie! . 98 TDI DISCO lightly modded with more to come.
Re: what box for 5ltr in a rangie
The TF727 in the rangie is apparently not the same box used behind high horsepower engines. It is instead the same box used in international scouts.
I had one, sold it to the scrap dealer for about $25. All I really wanted was the high ratio LT230.
