Aschcroft LT230 sump Defender td5 upgrade (Higher Capacity)

I already fitted the sump, pretty easy you need to take the original out, clean well the area around the sump as there will be sealing stuck to the Alu.

After all is clean i used new sealing and fitted the new sump and just filled 0,5 liter more of  transfer oil to go upto approx 2,7 liter in total.

In the case of transfer box the more oil the better.

I will proceed with this upgrade that was recomended by my mecanic and not expensive @ 65£ and the logic make sense….
