    Save your cash and get a new ring and pinion fitted to your box and get it rebuilt at the same time, 2.0 box prices are mental and they then usually need a rebuild

    Fixed that for you. They're no more likely to need a rebuild than any other box.

    How much better are the 6 rib ones, and in what way?
    Sorry for a bit of a derail, but after laying under my 1979 2.0 litre for a bit this last week, I don't think mine is original, and it seems to be a 3rib.......how will this differ/affect the van overall?
    Cheers, oh more knowledgable people!

    The 6 rib box is in a stronger case and has longer gear ratios, better suited to a more powerful engine.
    In reality it's just reduces the revs slightly.
