Diesel gearboxes

[cncfabs]

After many hours of toil i can confirm that the td and tdi gearboxes are completly different.If you check the photo the only part in common is the transfer box.obviously this is completely useless information unless of course you were going to change your gearbox but i thought i would share it anyway:thumbs

It's actually good info, I've always wondered:thumb2

from your photo the transfer box looks different too :nenau

Well done Fabs! If anyone needs to replace a 'box its very good info and could avoid mistakenly buying a 'bargain'. Just out of interest, in your shots, which is which?

So for reference purposes, is the oil covered box the Td version then?:nenau

It does in the pic i was measuring each part and the transfers were same length every other dimension was different.For reference the one covered in oil is the TD

i bought a td with a tdi box in it 2 weeks ago. i think they must fit the same?

I wonder if they changed the prop shaft also all the sensors are different

is tdi box slightly longer? rear prop probably changed. the box seems to fit well, but the 4x4 stick linkage is not connected?

about 1.5 inches longer

Mmm just a thought maybe the internals are the same just a bit more stronger to cope with the extra bhp. I can't see them re designing the whole transmission system. The bell housing looks different but those are just bolt on

Thats great work, thanks for your efforts. Info like this can be really useful.
