New Transfer Case LT230 (1.2 Gearing)

SCORE! Well kinda…my truck has a 1.667 Transfer Case and with the planned re-power I knew I was going to need lower gearing.

Contacted Ashcroft to inquire about re-gearing the damn thing instead of spending the $1600 to get a new TC (rebuilt) with the correct gearing… Things were good until Dave asked for the serial number, and that’s when the plan hit wall. He determined that not only was I going to need the new gears, but there were two other gears that were required…well that took the cost to over $1000. Better to get one from them at that point…

WELL… I was talking to my neighbor about the loose dog that was wondering the neighborhood when he mentioned that he got a part he has been needing for his NAS90, he had picked it from the local pick and pull from a Disco 1…Didn’t think anything of it…then I was like, wait…There is a Disco 1 at the pick and pull?

A couple hours later I have a LT230 from a Disco 1 with the 1.22 gearing…FOR $145…sure it might need a rebuild, but way better than spending the $1600.
