Five speed turbo swap, parts required...
Hello all!
First post here!
I am looking to do a manual transmission swap into my 1984 Mercedes 300TDT, I know, big surprise.
I have sourced a 5 speed transmission from an '82 240D and I would like to know if this transmission would bolt onto my wagon. Also, if the 5 speed deal falls through then I imagine a 4 speed would bolt up just fine as well?
Besides the advice on transmission/engine compatibility I am also looking for a list of parts I need to do the swap... I understand I'll need the big things like a pedal assembly and pressure plate but what about the trickier items? I have heard I need a crossmember from the 240D and a shortened driveshaft from a 300D.
Thank you very much for the help!
