GEARBOX PART 3: ASSEMBLY

GEARBOX PART 3: ASSEMBLY
Removing front casing of the 1985 GETRAG 240 to be swapped with my 1983 GETRAG 240


confirming with visual comparison first :P

looks identical except for the input bearing hole diameter...

'bottle cap' seal back into place


input shaft bearing fits nicely on the post 1984 GETRAG front casing


rear and front casing bolted in together...


installing bearing locking clip


installing release bearing and the clutch lever


however after all this, when i test the gearbox, it will not shift into 1 - 2 or reverse.... so it had to be opened again and turns out that the gate piston for the 1 - 2 - R are facing the wrong way... the angled side supposed to face the gear shaft... it was facing the other way


all assembled and the car now next i need to install new master and slave cylinder installed...
