Talking Tranny???

Does anybody know what you have to do in order to put a turbo tranny in a non-turbo rex.
What advantages does the turbo tranny have over the non-turbo tranny??


thanx

i believe that you need the tranny, driveshaft, diff., half shafts, flywheel/clutch, starter and counterweight... with all that the advantages are just a lot stronger drivetrain and a little bit higher gearing

well you can do it one of two ways.

#1
flywheel
clutch/pp
tranny
starter
driveshaft
diff
halfshafts

#2
flywheel
clutch/pp
tranny
starter
driveshaft from n/a automatic

the stock diff is pretty strong until you gets lots of power and lots of traction combined.

You forgot the clutch slave cylinder.

Nope... it's 2" too short.

It would be ok if it's LSD. Otherwise it isn't worth the effort. You could either have a auto driveshaft lengthened 2", or you could have the flange on the TII driveshaft re-drilled to match the pattern on the NA driveshaft. Or, you could have a driveshaft made with a TII front yoke and an NA rear flange.
