Is a broken MT82 gearbox worth refurbishing?

I had to replace it because it was stuck in 3rd gear

Had a bit of luck with a replacement from a newer damaged 110, so didn't PX for a refurbished one. I kept the original transfer box

It's done 60k miles
Seems a shame to scrap it but I'm not up to pulling it apart
All sensible suggestions welcome

if its stuck in 3rd and only done 60k there is every chance the g/box is fine and its just a stuck selector detent, and well worth fixing DEFENDER 90 TDCI XS,

I hope everyone is well and your land rovers make you happy

Try this thread as a starting place https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic60607...stuck+gear Just because you're offended doesn't mean you're right.

You probably don't want to know that you probably didn't even need to remove the box to sort the problem.
