Hello Jorgen in Lulea, Sweden: >I own a 1982 crewcab with a broken 4-speed gearbox. >I am about to replace it... >Can I replace it with a 5-speed gearbox ? 1) Yes, but you may have to swap the bellhousing too, no major problem. I do not agree with Chris in this chapter. Be sure to have the right front gearbox support. >Can/should I use the 5-speed gearbox from a diesel wanagon ? 2) Possible, but the final ratio is to low for a Wasserboxer. >Can/should I use the 5-speed gearbox from a wassserboxer ? 3) Refer to answer 1). >Is it worth the trouble or should I just get a new 4-speed gearbox ? The differences of the 5 speed is a additional gear below the first of the 4 speed. (2 to 5) of a 5 speed is equal to (1 to 4) of a 4 speed. >Figures on gear ratios, finaldrive ratios and other stuff for the >different gearboxes would be nice...
