200 tdi straight in?

#1 Post by dan » Fri Jun 22, 2007 3:49 pm

Hi guys,
can I install a 200tdi motor with tranny and transfer case still attached? Or do I need to seperate the motor from the gearbox/tranfer case?
Currently my fenders are off. My 110 is an exmod. Tank u!

If the 200TDI, gearbox and t. case came out of a Defender, it will go straight in. If it came from a Discovery, then no, you need to keep the current gearbox and do some other mods to fit.

The factory 200TDI kit installation manual is here: http://www.landrover.ee/est/files/manua ... 20info.pdf

Hi red,
thats awesome. thank you for the link. The guy I bought the engine from told me it was a defender engine, and the pics in the link you provided confirm it.
Thank you again. Cheers, Dan.

Hey Red90, you wouldn't happen to have a link to a 300Tdi instillation manual would you? I am gathering parts but not sure what all I need.

No that link was for the factory retrofit kit from a 2.5TD to a 200TDI.

Installing a 300TDI requires a bit of custom modifications. A 200TDI (from a Defender) is a straight bolt up.
