[@BritannicaRestorations]

That's great!

[@m.zackmccain9885]

this might be 3 years old but it's the best inspection video I have seen. I am working on my Jeep wranglers NV3550. thanks again

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Glad it helped

[@jimfesta8981]

What a great video. So many of the KZbin videos on manual transmission repair fail to explain what to look for in damaged parts. Very helpful.

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Glad it was helpful!

[@insomnica6258]

Thanks for the comparison gears pictures.

[@BritannicaRestorations]

No problem!

[@chasemcclary8861]

i just opened a used transmission to check everything out and this video helped me years after it was made good job my parts look pretty good!!

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Glad it helped

[@sailorbob74133]

That's really helpful. I have a transmission that would only go into 5th gear if I was on a slight decline going at just the right speed - eventually got to the point that it now pops out of 5th gear as soon as I give any gas... Thought I only needed to replace the 5 gear baulk ring but after watching your video I suspect I should also replace the 5th gear assembly itself as well... Thanks!

[@WPM_in_ATL]

Love the way you say "brand new gear" at 1:12.

[@BittnerBuddenbrock]

your explanations are so simply good - thank you very much

[@mikecunningham7621]

Thanks for this excellent video! Getting into my firsts transmission rebuild and this was very helpful! Subscribed.

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Thanks for the sub!

[@desertbreeze1620]

Brilliant explanation... I'm gonna give checking my gearbox a try now... I am a bit nervous as we don't have any local support to bail me out if I get stuck. Closest assistance is Ashcroft in the UK and the massive shipping bill associated with that!

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Lot's of transmission shops should be able to build an R380 - just getting the right parts/quality is the problem!

[@Anglgrinder-j3y]

Thank you for making this video well explained, I learned a lot to help me on a rebuild

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Glad to hear it!

[@mosesngungu8643]

I need your help with my gear box I need your number

[@richardhowarth4230]

Thank you mike, you are brilliant. Cheers

[@BritannicaRestorations]

No problem Mike

[@defenda2477]

Thanks mate very interesting, gave me some confidence in britpart if you use it.

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Britpart don't make anything, they just buy it in - the gearbox parts are OK - if you stick a G behind the part number then you will get the OEM stuff - other than that it is real cheap stuff But as with most parts suppliers, it is hit and miss Mike

@@BritannicaRestorations can you check synchronized gap wear while it’s installed in the shaft?

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Not really

[@steveguest8028]

This is a great video, what normally causes a gear to kick back out ? ....... Cheers 👍

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Could be one of many things - worn syncros or tired springs in the detent's

[@jameslewis197]

Do you think, when a 6 speed doesn't get into 2nd- but gets into all others, could it be the syncro'? It's a 95' I know it needs some work

[@BritannicaRestorations]

6 speed in a 95!? I am guessing it is an R380 - yes it could be the synchro, but I am seeing the forks are well-worn on the contact point and could cause the hub to tip and not engage properly - Search my recent gearbox videos -I have one somewhere in this issue

[@sdeske]

Subscribes, Well worth a follow. Awesome video work and description. Thank you for taking the time.

Hi, found this by searching for 5 speed manual gearbox rebuild.Found this information you impart very useful and interesting. Must be down to your years of experience and acquired knowledge performing this task. Would like to ask if you were asked to rebuild a Jeep Wrangler/Cherokee AISIN AX-15 five speed manual gearbox. Would this cause you any problems due to presumed lack of practical experience on this model of manual gearbox. Would it be fair to conclude both are quite similar in function and assembly components. Jeeps from the mid 1990s are far fewer on the UK than same the generation Land Rovers. So i would imagine much harder to find competent people to restore and repair worn synchromesh assemblies etc.

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Sorry I know nothing about Jeeps

[@maneki9neko]

very helpful

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Hearing the train horn threw me until i realised.

[@alextreharne11]

hi I have a dicsovery 2 with an r380 gearbox and ive been thinking about overhauling it. There is a used r380 that was removed from a defender for an auto conversion apparently no major issues asking for 2500 dollars canadian.... do you think this is a good deal? since the discovery is my daily driver it would help to be able to take apart the gearbox at my own pace and swap out. thanks for your videos, they are amazing.

[@BritannicaRestorations]

You did not mention which engine you had, but you may not be able to fit a defender box due to the input shaft length - need serial numbers off the boxes to confirm

[@alextreharne11]

@@BritannicaRestorationsThanks for the prompt reply. I have a 1999 discovery 2 with a td5, the engine is from a 2002 defender td5, so im guessing it would work? provided it was a fit, what do you think of the price?

[@BritannicaRestorations]

IF the Defender gearbox is from a Td5 not 300Tdi then it will fit - I seem to recall the input shafts are different lengths (Not sure about V8 R380) Would need the serial numbers to check Price is quite high, but these boxes are hard to find

[@alextreharne11]

@@BritannicaRestorations yea they are quite rare. Maybe I will see if the seller is willing to budge on the price a little bit. What in particular on the serial number are you looking for? Thanks for the replies

[@BritannicaRestorations]

If the Defender box has a Prefix 68 suffix L then it is a TD5 R380. If not walk away

[@onwheels8232]

Your camera il slow to syncronise. You have to change the syncro mesh to that too😏

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Yeap!

[@rickleaobacelarbacelar1697]

Good morning mate . If you put legend in Portuguese you would have more than 10,000 registered only here in Brazil. Brazilians are fanatical about Defender. Ricardo Brasil .

If someone can help me with this I will! Mike

sir you are funny. bought it by mistake you must be high at the moment xD

i gotta say tho this is one of the best i watched cause i am also looking to know what a worn gears look like transmission gears to be exact ty ty for this.

[@paulhancock3844]

Think you will struggle to get that early lt230 output gear to fit into an R380😂

No problem. Hey you at kims? If ya are could ya see if there is a press. It would be tits if ya toolk a pic of it if there is one.
