    3 speed manual to 4 speed conversion
    « on: February 25, 2007 - 05:58:09 PM »
    Does anyone know if a factory 3 speed manual car can swap a 4 speed A-833 without too much trouble? 

    thanks,
    Mike

    it would not be too bad , you already have the pedals & linkage , the belhousing should be drilled for both trannys , you will probably need a clutch , shifter & rods & a slip yolk to do the swap

    CP,

    Are the splines on the 4 speed different?  Input & output ?  I'll be doing a swap into the RoadRuster and that would be good to know ahead of time.

    Im guessing I will need to buy a new clutch anyway but wasn't sure about the length of the tranny, tranny mount and drive shaft length.

    thanks for all your help guys!   :cheers:
