It appears the reason I've lost 5th gear on my LT77 is the spline wear (destruction) on the mainshaft and 5th gear synchro in the pictures: So - Anyone have any advice on where to get a recon LT77 or short R380 in middle TN/Nashville sooner than the 4-5 week lead time listed on Ashcroft's site?

Hi all, I am working on getting a D110 and plan on swapping out the transmission for an automatic, so other family members can take part in the rugged goodness of the defender. Talking with many different folks there are many different opinions on the right way to approach an auto conversion...

The transmission cooler hoses have sprung a slow leak at the crimps. I plan to bring them to a local shop to have them re-crimp the lines. when I remove the two hoses... I am expecting some trans fluid to drain out from the lines and the cooler, but not from the transmission, correct? Thanks!
