Mine has the details stamped on the flat section on the left next to the alloy and looks like yours may have something there under the crud

I have found the serial number.
It is on the bottom but at the front (just on the flat above 26 of the photo date stamp.
The number is I think

14ACL11491B

What the hell is it as I cant find anything that starts with 14A.

that could either be a sherpa/ldv200 or a TR7 box or even a 2ltr P6 , you will never know until you took it apart they all look the same outside

may sound like a silly question but how many gears has it got / ie: how many can you select ?
remember it's only a bodge if it DOSN'T worK

I have not got a gearstick so I really have no idea to be honest.
I have never seen a 4 speed LT77 though - they must be rare ?

you should be able to shove the selector back and forth with a screwdriver to see how many gears you have .. the rover 2000 p6 had a 4 speed version , the trouble is all the cases look almost identical , the only differances are the drain and level holes are in differant places but even then there is no logic to it ..

it looks after having a rumage around , ignore the 41a part of the number and CL****** is a TR7 box
thats what i have on my V8 , the ratios are very similar to early SD1 boxes , but there are some bearing size differances .. if it's been sitting around for while it's worth opening it up and changeing seals / oil pump and gaskets they are not expensive and it's an easy box to recon i get all my bits from :

The Rover P6 was never fitted with an LT77 box, the only Rover 2000 that had one was the Rover SD1 2000 with the "O" series engine.

Gear box identification suffix B'

Post by mickjo »

Did you find out what the suffix B' means? Just got a 3.5 19A VDP unit but ends B'. Which has confused me. Any ideas?
