LT85 Slickshift
I am in the process of restoring my 110 (Kylie) and have the 3.5l V8 engine with the LT85 gearbox. I want to buy the LT85 slickshift from Syncro Gearboxes but they will only schedule a batch run iif they have at least 25 people who will buy one. The reason for my post is to establish if anyone else is interested. If so let me know as I already have found 12 people who want one. Only 13 more people to go. For the purposes of clarity I have no affiliation to Syncro so hope this post is ok. I just simply want to fit the product in my truck. Many thanks in advance.

Hi there, that was quite a while ago and we got to the magic number. Syncro made additional numbers so may have some if you get in touch with them direct. Good luck.

Managed to get one of these. Have watched the videos. Any gotchas on fitting I need to be aware of?

Ummm... perhaps make sure you don't chuck anything away so you can undo it?

I drove an LT85 with one last week, and I didn't enjoy it. The LT85 seems to benefit from lazy changes and this was too notchy crunchy for my style of Land Rovering! JB
