TRANSFER BOX - LT230SE
41-14 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Mainshaft input gear
The gearbox output shaft is splined into the mainshaft input gear which is supported by taper roller bearings.
Input gear bearing pre-load is achieved by the use of a selective shim located in the bearing housing.
Intermediate gears
The intermediate gear cluster is supported by the taper roller bearings located at each end of the cluster and runs on
the intermediate shaft which, in turn, is supported at the front and rear by the main casing.
A selective spacer, positioned between the gears, pre-loads the intermediate gear bearings when the intermediate
shaft nut is tightened sufficiently to achieve the correct 'torque to turn' of the intermediate gears.
On vehicles from 03 model year, the circlips used to retain the bearings in the intermediate gear are deleted. The bore
of the intermediate gear is machined with a shoulder at each end to locate the bearings.
Differential assembly
The differential assembly is supported at the front and rear by taper roller bearings, the front bearing outer track is
located in the front output housing and the rear bearing outer track is located in the main casing by the rear output
housing. Bearing pre-load is achieved by means of a selective shim located in the front output housing.
The differential rear shaft carries the low range gear, high/low selector sleeve and hub, high range gear and bush and
the differential rear bearing; these components being secured to the shaft by a special staked nut.
The differential assembly comprises front and rear half carriers with integral shafts and with sun and planet gears
mounted on cross shafts within the half carriers. Dished, non-selective thrust washers control the engagement of the
planet gears with the sun gears, whilst selective thrust washers are used to control engagement of the sun gears and
'torque to turn' of the differential. The differential carrier halves are bolted together, a retaining ring providing positive
location of the cross shafts.
The high/low selector shaft and fork are located at the side of the differential, movement of the shaft, fork and selector
sleeve being controlled by the high/low selector finger. A spring loaded detent ball fitted in the main casing, locates
in grooves in the shaft.
On vehicles from 03 model year, the selector fork is modified and fitted with a spring assister and clips to reduce the
effort required to move the selector lever.
Front output housing
The front output housing carries the front output shaft and flange, high/low cross shaft, housing and selector and on
certain vehicles, the differential lock selector shaft and fork.
The front output shaft is supported in the housing by a single bearing and is splined into the differential front sun gear.
High/low selector
The high/low cross shaft is located in a housing bolted to the top of the output housing and is connected to the high/
low selector finger which locates in a slot in the selector shaft.
High/low detect switch
A high/low detect switch is fitted in the front output housing and connects to earth when low is selected. The switch is
connected to the engine ECM, the SLABS ECU and the EAT ECU. The purpose of the switch is to enable selection
of the hill descent feature and to modify the engine fuelling and automatic gearbox gearshift maps stored within the
respective ECM's and ECU's.
Differential lock - If fitted
The differential lock selector housing is bolted to the top of the front output housing, the selector finger passes through
the housing, locating in a slot in the differential lock selector shaft. The differential lock selector shaft passes through
the selector fork which is located beneath a plate bolted to the side of the output housing. The selector fork engages
the dog clutch sleeve with the differential rear shaft when the splines of the sleeve and differential rear shaft are
aligned. A spring loaded detent ball fitted in the output housing locates in grooves in the shaft.

BRAKES
70-6 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Brake servo assembly
The brake servo assembly provides power assistance to reduce the pedal load when braking. If the brake servo
assembly fails, the hydraulic system still functions but will require greater brake pedal effort due to the lack of vacuum
assistance.
Two integral tie bolts attach the brake servo assembly to the pedal and bracket assembly on the engine bulkhead.
The master cylinder assembly is attached to the forward ends of the tie bolts.
The brake servo assembly consists of a circular housing which contains two diaphragms, a central plate, a control
valve assembly, input and output push rods and a filter. The input push rod is connected to the brake pedal. The output
push rod locates in the primary piston of the master cylinder. A protective gaiter is installed on the control valve
assembly where it extends from the rear of the housing. A non return valve, installed in a port in the front face of the
housing, is connected to a vacuum line from the engine.
The control valve assembly consists of a valve body containing a valve, a piston, a valve spring and an input rod
spring. The valve controls a vacuum port in the valve body. The piston controls an air inlet port between the valve and
the piston. A reaction disc and a ratio disc separate the piston from the output push rod. A guide tube on the front of
the valve body is attached to the front diaphragm and supported in a bush in the central plate. A return spring locates
in the open end of the guide tube.
The two diaphragms and the central plate separate the interior of the housing into four sealed chambers. The
chambers at the front of the diaphragms are connected together through fixed passages in the valve assembly. The
chambers at the rear of the diaphragms are connected together through the interior of minor diaphragms on the tie
bolts.
Brakes off
With the brake pedal released, the piston in the control valve assembly positions the valve so that the vacuum port is
open and the two pairs of chambers are connected together. When the engine is running air is evacuated through the
vacuum line and non return valve, creating a partial vacuum in all four chambers. When the engine stops, the non
return valve closes to maintain the partial vacuum and, on V8 models, prevent fuel vapour entering the brake servo.
