Welcome to the forum. The RD28 is a reliable engine, but there are a few things to check. http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forums/showthread.php?41430-RD28-Important-things-to-check

I take it you want to rebuild the gearbox. What are the problems you are experiencing with it? The gearbox requires a GL4 grade oil to function properly.

Thanks mudnut. Ive had problems with second gear not synchronising properly when cold reverse gear popping out and now third gear doesn't synchronise up or down shift when hot. Many years ago fifth gear used to pop out but it came good. Transmission expert told me years ago the shaft is moving a fraction. But im no expert. Clutch is due for replacement so may as well look at the box.
