    some 110s came with the 2.5L and even 2.25L engines, but all had either the LT77, LT77s, R380, or LT95 gearbox. and they all had the LT230 transfer case. So the only piece of your drivetrain that would "bolt in" to a stock defender 110 chassis in the engine. this engine will also bolt to the 5 spd of that era. my question for you is WHY??? the only thing you would be gaining out of a 110 chassis swap is coil springs, which can be done a lot easier and cheaper using a coil chassis from Designa Chassis. To use a 110 frame, you would also either have to shorten the frame by 1", or fit a defender back body, roof sides, and roof panel.

    its not worth it, IMO
