THE LAND ROVER SERIES lll GER BOX AND ALTERNATOR

Later still, there are Series lll lever that come straight back rather than begin zig zag. There are these if you can and stick to the all metal type with the rubber ring. The gear knob is different, too flatter at the top for earlier versions and more rounded for later version. Personally, find a series llA leaver more comfortable in a series l. They sit higher, so you don’t have that reaching forward and downward sensation though reverse can seem a long way off in the end. It’s simply a matter of preference.

So if you’re not offended by the slightly different look, the simplest thing would be to swap levers and see hove you get on before making any other decisions. If you do that. Though keep the old lever its and original part on the vehicle.

The alternator its specialist alternator, probably based on a GM design intended for tractors and generator sets. It’s been chrome plated for use on a hot road or show car. Its single wire B positive, going to the A positive. Special regulator detects rotation and start changing. You can’t connect a warning light or drive the rev counter, but it would make an excellent charger for and auxiliary battery winch system. You could mount it on your vehicle as a second alternator, possibly where an air conditioning compressor would fit such as on a 200\300TDI. You must always keep a battery attached when the alternator is being driven.
