Hello All,
After looking for awhile, I have been able to purchase a 96 D1 manual shift. The previous owner stated that the rear differential was bad, locks up after driving a short distance. I haven't had time to diagnose or tear into it yet. I did notice the transfer case would not shift into low range, but the center dif lock works (high range). Possibly the previous owner was driving around in high range / dif lock? So my questions, 1. are the axles / gear ratio the same for auto / manuals? 2. are the transfer cases the same as well?
Thank you, I appreciate any help.
Karl

Gear ratios and transfer box ratios are the same between ZF and R380 cars
All discoveries had 1.2 Transfer case ratios (high). I believe what you are getting at is: can you use parts from other discoveries? The answer is yes.
Did you try moving the car a few times before getting into low range? The linkage can sometimes be motivated by WD40, you may need to adjust the throw in some cases.
