Tailshaft etc are different, but the gearbox itself isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raptor_Z Member 43 Member For: 4y 11m 8d Posted 02/01/20 02:01 AM Author Share Posted 02/01/20 02:01 AM Great Is it better to replace the PAN with tranny oil? I am thinking to put the oil cooler later on anyways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
