DESCRIPTION
Introduction
Mainshaft input gear
The LT230T transfer box is mounted at the rear of
the main gearbox and transmits drive to the front
and rear axles via the propeller shafts.
The gearbox output shaft is splined into the
mainshaft input gear which is supported by taper
roller bearings.
Construction
Input gear bearing pre-load is achieved by the use of
a selective shim located in the bearing housing. An
additional power take-off gear is located at the rear
of the input gear for certain applications.
The transfer box comprises three main assemblies,
the main casing, front output housing and rear
output housing.
Intermediate gears
The main casing carries the mainshaft input gear,
the intermediate gears and the differential together
with the high/low range gears, selector shaft and
fork.
The intermediate gear cluster is supported by taper
roller bearings located at each end of the cluster and
running on the intermediate shaft which, in turn, is
supported at the front and rear by the main casing.
The front output housing carries the front output
shaft and flange, high/low cross shaft, housing and
selector and the differential lock selector shaft and
fork. A dog clutch on the front output shaft is
operated by the differential lock selector fork to
engage/disengage the differential lock.
Intermediate gear bearing pre-load is achieved by
means of a collapsible spacer positioned between
the bearings, the amount of compression applied to
the spacer is by means of a nut on the end of the
intermediate shaft.
The rear output housing carries the rear output shaft
and flange and the speedometer drive and driven
gears. A mechanically operated transmission brake
is attached to the housing, the brake drum being
attached to the output flange.
All housings and cover plates are sealed to the the
main casing by gaskets or sealant; mud and water
ingress being prevented by mud shields and
throwers located at each end of the output housings
and on the drive flanges.

TRANSFER BOX
Differential assembly
Front output housing assembly
The differential assembly is supported at the front
and rear by taper roller bearings, the bearing outer
tracks being located in the front and rear output
housings. Bearing pre-load is achieved by means of
a selective shim located in the front output housing.
The front output shaft is supported in the front output
housing by a single bearing and is splined into the
differential front shaft.
The high/low cross shaft is located in a housing
bolted to the top of the output housing and is
connected to the high/low selector finger which
locates in a slot in the selector shaft.
The differential rear shaft carries the low range gear,
high/low selector sleeve and hub, high range gear
and bush and the differential rear bearing; these
components being secured to the shaft by a special
nut.
The differential lock selector housing is also bolted
to the top of the front output housing, the selector
finger passes through the housing, locating in a slot
in the differential lock selector shaft. The differential
lock selector shaft passes through the selector fork
which is located beneath a plate bolted to the side of
the output housing. A spring loaded detent ball fitted
in the output housing locates in grooves in the shaft.
The differential assembly comprises front and rear
half carriers with integral shafts and sun and planet
gears mounted on cross shafts within the half
carriers. Dished, non-selective thrust washers
control the engagement of the planet gears with the
sun gears whilst selective thrust washers are used
to control the engagement of the sun gears and load
to turn of the differential. The differential carrier
halves are bolted together, a retaining ring providing
positive location of the cross shafts.
A differential lock warning lamp switch, operated by
movement of the selector fork and shaft is screwed
into the top of the output housing.
The high/low selector shaft and fork are located at
the side of the differential, movement of the shaft,
fork and selector sleeve being controlled by the
high/low selector finger. A spring loaded detent ball
fitted in the main casing, locates in grooves in the
shaft.
Range Rover Classic only - For certain markets, a
neutral warning lamp switch operated by the
high/low cross shaft is screwed into the side of the
housing.
Rear output housing assembly
For certain markets, a neutral warning lamp switch
operated by the high/low selector shaft and an
interlock solenoid are fitted in the main casing.
The rear output shaft is supported in the rear output
housing by a single bearing and is splined into the
differential rear shaft. The output shaft also carries
the speedometer drive gear which meshes with the
driven gear located in the rear output housing.
Lubrication
Lubrication is by splash, oil filler/level and drain
plugs being located in the main casing. An oil
temperature switch is also fitted for certain
applications.

TRANSFER BOX
OPERATION
The gearbox output shaft transmits power to the
mainshaft input gear which is in constant mesh with
one of the intermediate gears. The intermediate
gears are in constant mesh with the high and low
range output gears running on the differential rear
shaft.
Power is transmitted to the output shafts by locking
either the high or low range gears to the differential
rear shaft. This is achieved by means of the high/low
selector fork, sleeve and splined hub.
The differential lock, when applied, prevents all
available power being transmitted to the road wheels
offering least resistance and is especially useful for
’off-road’ conditions. When selected, the selector
fork engages the dog clutch on the differential shaft
with a gear on the front output shaft; this locks the
differential and provides fixed drive thereby
transmitting equal power to both output shafts.
