Default gearbox change

I have a 1974 2 1/4 ltr defender 110, and I'm wondering if the five speed box from an sd1 rover v8 will go into mine to replace the four speed? any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thumbs up Box

If you vehicle is a 1974 is will be a 109 not a 110 but not to worry.
I think ashcrofts do a conversion to fit the sdi box to a 4spd transfer box,but if I where you I would look for a landrover LT77 5 spd box complete with transfer box as the lt77 is the very same box as the car but different ratio.You can pick a good un up for 2-300 quid and it will drop straight in with no messing about only the clutch plate will need to be swapped.Feel free to contact me for further advice.
Cheers ONz
