Would a 5 speed manual out of a 1995 disco be an LT-77 transmission? If so does that mesh with an LT-230 transfer case? |

The disco transmission should be a RT380. It will mate to a LT230 but the splines on the manual output shaft are different than the auto. It requires the t-case from a manual truck or changing the input shaft in a auto unit.
I know that Rover Land in Tampa, FL has a couple of manual transmission trucks. Phone # 813-269-2220 or 866-707-6837, web www.roverlandparts.com |

The LT77 has R to the left and forward, the R380 has R to the right and back...
A lot of the earlier US Defenders have had their LT77 transmissions swapped for R380 ones...
FWIW...

Last i checked parts are no longer available thru LR for the lt-77, which is who made it. Have a habit of breaking output shafts in the LT-77 |

to put an R-380 or RT-380 into a truck that has an LT-95 trans in it would i have to change the master/slave and clutch? |

Paul, after seeing so many rebuilt R380s out there I decided I'm sticking with the LT95 for now. Check out:
