The LT230 on the Defender, Discovery 1 and Discovery 2 is nearly unbreakable if it has oil in it and is routinely found without. The two speed units on the Discovery 3 and 4, the Sport and the Range Rover are electronically shifted and fail more often at the motor and the control module than in the gears, which is worth diagnosing before you buy a whole box. The Discovery 1 shares its chassis design and drivetrain with the Defender and the Range Rover Classic, and it rusts in the same places.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification and fitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits: Discovery 1, chassis code LJ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEngine: 200Tdi and 300Tdi diesel, 3.5 and 3.9 V8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduction dates: 1989 to 1998\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuality: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: cross referenced to the factory part number for your VIN and confirmed before dispatch, because supersessions on these vehicles are frequent and one printed number would be wrong for somebody\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe failure this addresses: engine revs and noise at cruise, particularly after a tyre size change\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLabour time: about 6 hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoding: none.

Land Rover changes specification mid production, often by VIN rather than by model year, so send the VIN or the registration with the order and we confirm the part against the build data before anything leaves. It takes two minutes and it is the difference between a part that fits and a return. We are an independent Land Rover specialist and parts supplier. We are not Land Rover or Jaguar Land Rover and are not appointed by them; the model names are their trademarks and are used here to describe fitment. Everything we sell is chosen for vehicles that actually get used: towed with, loaded, driven through water and parked in fields, rather than for the brochure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich version to buy\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eStandard is the standard specification, which is what most vehicles need and what we would quote unless you told us otherwise. There is one specification of this, because it is the one we would fit to our own vehicles and a cheaper version would not be doing you a favour.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Solihull Spares","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54809438093645,"sku":"SLS-TFB-014","price":569.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/6247\/2269\/files\/Discovery_1_LT230_High_Ratio_Gear_Set_86afda09-373a-4d2d-8ef2-b022b3c96fe1.jpg?v=1790170963","url":"https:\/\/solihullspares.com\/products\/discovery-1-lt230-high-ratio-gear-set","provider":"Solihull Spares","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
