D-series trans info needed
I got a z6 tranny and apparently 1st gear has issues in it and maybe 4th, so I was thinking about swapping gears in from my dx tranny since the gears are identical in both of those as far as I have found, but I kinda need some info on tearing up the transmissions before I do. Any info would be awesome.

its hard
buy a helms they dont lie Building trans is perhaps one of the complex things in bulding cars good luck |
Re: D-series trans info needed
thanks. I know a friends who does it, but he mostly just knows the final drive part and nothing else. I may just try and see where it leads. worst case I still have another DX trans that I can use.

EXPLAIN the issues first.

Re: D-series trans info needed
I am just told it makes noises in first gear consistently while driving. I just bought it this way so I am not 100% sure on its issues.

Re: D-series trans info needed
Input shaft bearing, common failure point when fluid level not kept up to correct level.
$35 in parts..... If trans is out of the car, grab the shaft and wiggle it, if it wiggles it gets replaced! |
Re: D-series trans info needed
can I steal it from another trans and also is there any other parts I should check/swap while I am at it?
|
Re: D-series trans info needed
remember the counter shaft is reverse threaded.... and to pull the case theres a clip on the inside of the tranny that you have tou take out somehow...
i dont remember becaues i looked up for my tranny(d16a1) thinking its the same but there different so i didnt read in full depth... |
Re: D-series trans info needed
don't be a cheap ass, buy a new bearing and seal and FIX the problem.
Spec out the shifter forks while at it. Also the dumpshit in the post above, must be smoking crack thinking a CS is reverse threaded. You don't remember because you were to ------- STONED to know! |
Re: D-series trans info needed

I tried to rebuild a trans around 3-4 years ago the trans ended up in the garbage. Im hell of alot more skilled now and pretty confident I could get the job done now but its the one thing I havent been able to do with a little patient right away why, its not that easy kids I have been meaning for a long time to start to get into it but just life has gotten in the way. |
