Though my favorite was still the T56 that was in my Z/28 with a 0.74 5th gear, and a 0.50 6th gear. Even the 5 speed that came with my F350 diesel has an OD ratio of 0.77.īut on the other hand, the Mustang T5 was a 0.73, with the World Class T5 being a 0.68. 7x is pretty tall in the OD range, and is probably going to be difficult to find in anything intended to be behind a gas engine to begin with until you start looking at transmissions intended to go behind larger domestic V8s in the sports/muscle car classes. Oh, and I guess I forgot the 5th gear ratio info, but it wouldn't have helped much anyways. Yes I drive it daily, and do wheel it occasionally, but I also know when to say when, and not to push it to the breaking point. The gearbox and the engine both trouble free. Powered by a modified VW1.9TD, 235/75R15 tires on 8" steel wheels. It's a wild feeling flying down the highway leaving a trail of parts, fluid and smoke out the rear !! This even happens to the very best. Not in a Suzuki drivetrain mine ya, but a Volkswagen one. If your going out to slap it up a cliff each weekend redlining it each time, I can guarantee it's going to break, been there too. This of course is if your going to drive it with respect.

If you have a good gearbox, stage two full faced clutch disc, and the rest of the drivetrain ( transfer case universal joints and diffs ) all trouble free, you shouldn't have any issues. Clutch springs will collapse and bust before you damage the gearbox. "Or deliver it" I would say, to the gearbox. It's how you drive it, like some already mentioned. Įither way, its fine to have the horsepower. I have pushed close to 200hp into the Suzuki Sidekick gearbox. With the few I have done, the gear boxes were fully rebuilt, new bearings, seals, synchros and a new input shaft just because. This is not only due to the horsepower and torque, but also due to the acoustics and vibrations of the diesel engine. The VW diesel will quickly find the wear and tear and make sure you hear it too, with noises not heard behind a gas engine. Trust me when I say, it's better to rebuild the gearbox and be sure there are no issues before mating it to the diesel.

You will be ok with the stock gearbox, providing the gearbox is trouble free without wear and tear.

Thing is that I don't want to trim my dash and tunnel for the transmission.Īre there any stronger manual transmissions out there that will fit with minimal trimming? Maybe from the newer Vitaras?īetter yet is there anyone running the stock transmission with this much torque without any transmission issues? I will be making about 150hp with the engine and a lot more torque.Įveryone is telling me the stock transmission won't hold up very long with this much power and have recommended toyota transmissions. I am starting my 97 4 door sidekick build and need some help for an upgraded transmission for my 1.9 ALH mtdi, the transmission is the last part I need to get going on the build fully.
If it looks funny, it’s probably gonna act funny.Quote from: cgi2099 – on Tuesday, Feb 08, 2022, 08:06 AM Hi All, The engine or transmission may be visibly sagging, especially if it’s a front-wheel drive car. But when the mount goes, they’ll suddenly have free reign. Do I need to mention that they shouldn’t really be moving around at all? Well, they shouldn’t. If the mount breaks, both the engine and transmission may find themselves moving around more than they should. If the mount is broken, the liquid from the center of the mount may begin leaking out.Įngine and transmission are sagging or moving
This will only be the case if you have a hydraulic mount, which has a liquid center. One of the causes of a leak is a busted transmission mount. Your car has a lot of fluids, which means it can sometimes leak. The noise is the result of the transmission mount allowing the engine or transmission to move around, so that’s when you’ll hear it. In general, the noise will occur when you’re accelerating, decelerating, or putting your car into gear. When your transmission mount begins to malfunction, you’ll notice a loud clunking noise.
Trust me.Īhh, everyone’s favorite car problem: a mysterious noise. When the mount breaks down and fails, it will no longer absorb vibrations, which means the thing stuck absorbing the vibrations is…wait for it…you. You remember that whole spiel I did a second ago, about how the transmission mount keeps vibrations from getting into the cabin? Well, you can probably guess that when there are excessive vibrations in the cabin, it might be the result of the transmission mount not doing its job anymore. Symptoms of a failing Transmission Mount?
