OVERDRIVE KITS, GLOBAL ROAMER AUS, FOR DEFENDER OR SERIES APPLICATIONS

The Model DS ROAMERDRIVE is an upgraded version of the model DX first introduced in 2006. The upgrades on the DS model include a more open front-end architecture that enables oil shared with the transfer case to be circulated more efficiently. An Archimedes screw on the main shaft retains oil behind a ‘dam’ in the front cover to ensure efficient lubrication at high speeds and on steep inclines. A crush washer on the nose of the overdrive provides bearing preload on all variations of transfer case. Other than the use of epicyclical gear technology, the DS has little in common with other designs of overdrive sold for five speed Land Rovers in the past. The overdrive has no electrical components or cone friction clutches and no dedicated oil sump. It is a very compact unit that shares oil with the transfer case and does not interfere with exhaust pipes or other fittings on the Land Rover.Global Roamer CorporationThe DS overdrive can be fitted to any five-speed 90, 110 or 130 model Defende
