HERES SOME ADAPTERS PLATES,4SPD ,5SPD ,and AUTOMATICS
Mercedes Diesel Engine Adapter Kits
The attempt here is to adapt the 617 to another vehicle on this site,here its a jeep.The trannie swap install to a mercedes has another list of questions to answer .To begin you would want to know how wide is the tunnel vs the swapped trannie ,the trans mount ,the shifter linkage , the driveshaft either to short or to long ,custom install etc etc etc $ $ $.If your a diy guy with a shop you could build all the parts then sell this conversion ,the plate is already being sold ,its all the other pieces to build a great 5spd conversion to make it a complete kit.If a $1000 target is kept I dont doubt this would be a seller to those wanting the 5 spd conversion without hunting for a rare 5spd MB STICK AND HAVING ALL THE PARTS NEEDED at your disposal during INSTALL.
