Need transfer box for Legnum 2500cc ST-R

[gamasimp]

Hello,
I am a new member. Recently the pinion gear in the transfer box just packed up. The mechanics discovered that the previous owner of the legnum 2500cc ST-R manual 5 speed gear didn't refill the transfer box with oil. I need help getting a second hand transfer box. Please help.

not sure if it is the same as the VR4 box , but the STR is even harder to come by than the VR4

Whats you chasis number and I will compare the VR4 versus the STR on caps

Chassis number is EC5W - 0009630. I am keeping my fingers crossed. Hope it works

Whereabouts in the world are you?

Kempys in New Zealand seem to be good at finding and shipping parts. I have never used them, but there are people on here who have.

STR transfer case assembly === MD748274 - w4a4 - gearbox
VR4 transfer case assembly === MD748268 - w5a5 , w5m5 gearboxes

From the output of the caps info it looks like they are not the same so you challenge may be even harder

Also there is not a breakdown of the internals of the transfer box so I do not know if you can just get the failed part from Mitsy

There was a manual ST-R at a wreckers in NZ here, if not Kempys are the best place to try.

All Hail The Mighty Mo!!

Thank you all for your responses. I am citizen of the world but i leave in Zambia. So Bradc any more information on the ST-R wreck in NZ?

[gamasimp]

Zedy1, is your transfer box correct specs with what i need? STR transfer case assembly === MD748274 - w4a4 - gearbox

[bradc]

I really don't know much about the car, the last time I saw it was about 3 months ago, so the transfer case has probably gone by now anyway!

Mo sounds like he is able to help you out though.

Bradc, Hope Mo will be able to. Thanks anyway.
