Gents:
Can you please lend a little of your expertise to a guy in the States trying to sort a frustrating issue with the ZF 4HP22 gearbox?

Here's my situation: I have a rebuilt ZF4HP22 with a Disco 1 bellhousing. As you likely know, this bellhousing tilts the gearbox over at a slight angle.
For my application, I must have the gearbox sitting level.
Question:
Does the ZF4HP24 bellhousing orient the gearbox level or tilted, like the 4HP22 bell?

I am using the ZF box in a Triumph TR8 to replace the awful Borg Warner T65. There are a lot of Land Rover parts in use here, including the engine which is from a 1995 Disco. When the 'box is tilted it hangs below the frame rails in my car and causes other issues.

Thank you in advance for ant help you can provide.

As far as I know the transmission angle will be identical

 

Thanks but I am looking for a definitive absolutely 100 percent positive answer BEFORE I buy a used 4HP24 bellhousing.

That would require someone with direct knowledge or someone willing to look under their 4HP24-equipped Land Rover and see if the gearbox is level or tilted like this in the picture...

 

Hi Richard, I’m just across the river from you in Windsor area. If you look on some of the British v8 sites they know a lot about getting rid of the transfer case for 2wd applications. It is apparently a common mid over there for sports cars

 

This is great site to thrift through. I use it for rover v8 tips.
