Land Rover Part Number: IEH000081 - Intermediate Shaft Gear - 1.2:1
IEH000081 is an Intermediate Shaft Gear with a 1.2:1 ratio. Fitted to the LT230 transfer box, this gear establishes a 1.2:1 drive ratio between the input and intermediate shafts. The gear locates on the intermediate shaft and transmits torque by meshing with the input and countershaft gears to achieve the stated intermediate reduction; correct tooth profile, hardening and precise engagement are required for reliable power transfer and long service life. The component works with associated bearings, seals and retaining parts to maintain axial and radial alignment under load - wear or damage will affect drive distribution and can produce noise or vibration. When replacing the gear ensure correct shaft clearance and restore any associated spacers or shims to their original positions, and confirm related bearing condition and lubrication.
