Outer Limits 4x4 Board

gday
just woundering if any has fitted a discovery lt 77 into a 2 door rangie ?

Would be an easy fit tho you will need the LT230 to go with it and you will need the floor pannell from an 85 on RRC i have a floor section here available tho why would you want the LT77 if your only running the std 3.5 it will be ok for a while if driven nice tho dont expect it to last there not a verry strong box ya beta off with the late LT95 with the .996to1 high range

thanks for the info lokka well i bought the engine,gearbox and transfer out of a 93 disco and plane on fiting the lot into my 2 door but wasent sure on the gear box tunnal for clearence

The main problem with the tunnel is the gear lever is in a different place.
Up to 85 the gear lever was in front by the dash (same position as county/defender), somewhere around late 85/86 they moved the gear lever backwards by about 200mm.

That's why Lokka mentioned getting another tunnel. Of course you may be able to swap with someone who is going from LT77/R380 to an LT95 with the Isuzu.

and does any one know if will i be abel to fit a set of carbies to my fule injected 3.5 ?

Yep just swap the inlet maifolds put the carby manifold on and you should be right its all the same shyte a mate did the same to his rangie when the EFI started playing up tho if the EFI is the later 14cux type its probably beta off you keep it rather than the carbs

Also the tunnell for the LT95 isnt as high as the LT77

thanks ill be fiting a set of carbies soon.

Its easy to tell the difference the one you need is taller in the mid section than ya std one and it has a longer cut out and should have a cast alloy plate with it which screws on over the hole were the 2 shifters come through

ok ill be buying a late model tunnel soon.
does any one know if i will i be abel to use the dizzy out of the discovery in the rangie ? or will i need and older dizzy for it ?

Yes you can although the wiring will be a little different, since 2 doors never had EFI apart from the CSK limited edition model you will need to change the fuel pump to a low pressure carby one- this may mean changing the fuel tank depending on how yours was converted to efi. The tunnel you need is an 84/85 manual tunnel 86 and up tunnels are welded in and not screwed in like all previous years. You could use an auto tunnel but you will have to change the gear panel as the auto one is a large alloy plate.

ok thanks is there any other problems i might have with it ?

As all of the above have mentioned it is possible just fiddly. Make sure you have all the bits to do the conversion, saves a lot of pissing about later on too and extra $$ that could be saved if you ahev to lpocate anyhting extra.

The later 5 speed/auto floorpan will make life easier and look a bit more factory fitted.

Good luck with it.

Why do you want to do this? Did you not get the ecu and loom with your EFI motor? A 93 disco should have the hotwire style AFM rather than the flap style, which means it should go much better than the carbies - especially for economy and starting.... My 2 cents...

well change of planes i will be fiting efi
in it.

has any one got the hotwire style diagrame ?

The airflow meter has a big flap, or a hotwire in side

thanks cloughy
