Check out Ashcroft Transmissions in the UK -- their rebuilt R380s are an improvement over the factory unit and they can probably ship it direct to you. | ||

If all else fails, take the broken parts to a good machine rebuilding machine shop.It's a long shot, but you should see what the locals do for machinery here at the factory. Peace, Paul | ||

Find Keith Kreutzer, he hooked me up big time with a rebuilt trans for my greymarket truck, its damn nice and it was an extremly fair price. If you have some time and patience I would track him down adn ask him. A bunch cheaper then ashcroft and roverparts | ||

I've pulled out the 5spd Transmission from my 94 Disco. I swapped it out for a rebuilt unit. My old Transmission had problems with 2nd gear (would jump out and crunch going in). It is just collecting dust. I don't know if I should get it re-built or sell it on (for parts). | ||

Just noticed that www.roversdownsouth.com has main shafts for r380s listed on their website Frankly sounds to me like your shop doesn't want the job | ||

The gearbox you have probably has the prefix "J". If you decide to rebuild it, try to get the parts for the "K" or "L" gearbox, these are much stronger. |
