TRANSFER BOX - LT230SE
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 41-15
Functionality – Vehicles up to 03 model year only
The function of the differential lock used in previous applications is performed on this vehicle by the Electronic Traction
Control System. However, for the purposes of 2 wheel rolling road testing , the differential lock components are
retained. For all driving conditions however, the differential lock must be set in the unlocked position.
Up to 03 model year specification shown
The differential lock must only be engaged for 2 wheel rolling road testing as engagement of the lock disables the
traction control feature and inhibits correct operation of the electronic brake distribution and hill descent features. It
will also be necessary to disconnect the propeller shaft from the transfer box output shaft driving the axle whose
wheels are NOT on the rolling road. The lock may be engaged/disengaged by using a 10 mm open ended spanner
on the flats (arrowed) machined on the differential lock selector shaft.
Vehicles not fitted with a differential lock may be identified by there being no cover or selector shaft (arrowed) on the
front output housing.
WARNING: VEHICLES NOT FITTED WITH A DIFFERENTIAL LOCK MUST NOT BE TESTED ON A ROLLING
ROAD WHERE THE ROLLERS ARE DRIVEN BY THE VEHICLE.
Functionality – Vehicles from 03 model year only
The differential lock must be engaged for 2 wheel rolling road testing. It will also be necessary to disconnect the
propeller shaft from the transfer box output shaft driving the axle whose wheels are NOT on the rolling road. In
addition, the ETC system must be deactivated by either, removing a fuse (10A fuse 28 in the passenger compartment
fusebox, labelled ABS) or disconnecting the ABS modulator pump. This must be done with the ignition switched off.
Note that the SLABS ECU may record a system fault.
The lock can be engaged or disengaged using the selector lever.
WARNING: VEHICLES NOT FITTED WITH A DIFFERENTIAL LOCK MUST NOT BE TESTED ON A ROLLING
ROAD WHERE THE ROLLERS ARE DRIVEN BY THE VEHICLE.

41-16 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Differential lock warning lamp switch - if fitted - Vehicles up to 03 model year
A differential lock warning lamp switch connected to the SLABS ECU and operated by movement of the selector fork
and shaft is screwed into the top of the output housing. The switch connects to earth when the differential lock is
engaged.
Differential lock warning lamp switches - Vehicles from 03 model year
Vehicles from 03 model year are fitted with two differential lock warning lamp switches.
Both switches are of a new design and are fitted into the top of the front output housing. The switches are connected
to the SLABS ECU and are operated by movement of the selector shaft.
Both switches have an aluminium washer which seals the switch to the casing and also sets the switch position,
removing the requirement for a setting procedure.
Both switches are connected in parallel to earth when the differential lock is engaged. This earth is sensed by the
SLABS ECU which illuminates the differential lock warning lamp in the instrument pack.
Differential lock warning lamp - Vehicles up to 03 model year – if fitted
The differential lock warning lamp is located in the instrument pack and provides a warning to the driver when the
ignition is switched on that the differential lock is engaged. The warning lamp illuminates in a Red colour.
With the lock engaged, the traction control and electronic brake distribution warning lamps will also be illuminated.
Disengagement of the differential lock should be carried out with the ignition switched off. The warning lamps must
be extinguished when the ignition is switched on again.
Differential lock warning lamp – vehicles from 03 model year
The differential lock warning lamp is amber coloured and is located in the instrument pack.
When the lock is engaged, the warning lamp is illuminated and the instrument pack sounder emits three audible
chimes. When the lock is disengaged, the warning lamp is extinguished and the instrument pack sounder emits three
audible chimes.
Rear output housing
The rear output housing carries the output shaft and flange. A cable operated transmission brake is attached to the
housing, the brake drum being attached to the output flange.
The rear output shaft is supported in the housing by a single bearing and is splined into the differential rear sun gear.
Lubrication
Lubrication is by splash, oil filler/level and drain plugs being located in the main casing.
Internal pressures caused by thermal expansion and contraction are avoided by the use of a plastic breather pipe
venting the interior of the box to atmosphere. The pipe is attached to the top of the high/low selector housing by a
banjo bolt and is then routed in a continuously rising path into the engine compartment where the open end is secured
by a clip attached to the engine cylinder block.
Oil temperature warning lamp switch
An oil temperature switch is fitted to V8 engine models up to 03 Model Year. In the event of the transfer box oil
approaching maximum recommended working temperature of 145°C (293°F), the switch will close and a warning
lamp in the instrument pack will be illuminated.

Reassembly
1.Lubricate all components with recommended
oil and lightly oil the differential bolt threads.
2.Secure rear half of differential carrier in a soft
jawed vice.
3.Fit each planet gear to its respective cross
shaft, fit new dished thrust washer to each
gear.
4.Fit cross shafts, planet gears and dished thrust
washers in rear half of carrier.Ensure that
cross shafts are fitted correctly. Do not fit
the sun gear into the rear half carrier at this
stage.
5.Fit retaining ring.
6.Fit a 1.05 mm (0.04 in) thrust washer to sun
gear from front half of carrier. Position gear in
front half of carrier.
7.Ensuring that assembly marks are aligned, fit
both halves of carrier together.
8.Fit the differential carrier bolts and, working in a
diagonal sequence, tighten the bolts to 60 Nm,
(44 lbf.ft).9.Insert the front output shaft into the front half of
the carrier and check that the gears rotate
freely.
10.Fit output flange on to the splines of the output
shaft, but do not fit flange nut at this stage.
11.Fit transmission brake drum to output flange
and secure the drum using 2 nuts.
12.Secure a length of cord around the drum and
attach one end of the cord to a spring balance.
13.Pull on the spring balance and note the load at
which the brake drum starts to turn. Used
gears should rotate smoothly, while new
gears will have a 'notchy' feel as they rotate.
14.Compare the figure obtained with the following.
lUsed gears = 0.45 kg (1.0 lb)
lNew gears = 1.72 kg (3.8 lb)
15.If the load to turn figure is below the specified
limits, proceed as follows.
16.Remove the front output shaft and brake drum.
17.Remove the 8 bolts securing the two halves of
the differential carrier
18.Separate the differential carrier and remove the
sun gear and thrust washer from the front half.
19.Select a thicker thrust washer from the range
available. 5 different thrust washers are
available, rising in increments of 0.10 mm
(0.004 in) from 1.05 mm to 1.45 mm (0.04 to
0.06 in).
20.Repeat steps 7 to 19 as necessary until the
load to turn figure is as specified
21.When specified load to turn is obtained,
proceed as follows.
22.Remove the front output shaft and brake drum.
23.Remove the 8 bolts securing the two halves of
the differential carrier
24.Separate the differential carrier and remove the
sun gear and thrust washer from the front
half.Retain the selected thrust washer with
its sun gear.
