A loaf tranny will not work in a Vanagon. Your options are what you have or
you can change the linkage and use a later tranny. There are some gearing
options if you want to have one built up.

Subject: Aircooled transmission options


Hi all,


If I choose to get my 81 Westy back on the road, what are my options for
replacing the 2 speed manual transmission in the bus? 3rd and 4th are not
good options while driving the Sierras.


I guess the question is, will type 2 transmissions from a loaf work in my
bus or are there cheep 80-83 transmissions out there?
