5 speed tranplant. Help

[flyboyx]

since i am not sure to which you are referring, engine and tranny cross members are the same. the trans cross member actually bolts to the xfer case.

Is the crossmember for the auto and 5spd the same, or are they different?

*everything* is the same, except one has a clutch, and the front half of the auto t-case is different from the manual so it can mount to the 4HP22 housing.

Between the both of you, you've answer my question - thank you.

Hello all e30 lovers. I need some help i am mewbie here. I am trying to swap my ix auto to 5 speed . What parts do i need for the transplan?. Thank in advance to all my e30 lovers.

Looks like I won't be going through with my 5spd IX swap; I am going to list it for sale shortly & have the majority of the parts you need:

- 5spd tranny
- 1x 5spd transfer case + 2x additional auto transfer cases as spares
- almost new flywheel
- good clutch disc & pressure plate
- clutch master & slave + hard/soft lines
- 5spd pedal assembly w/brake light switch (no-airbag)
- new synthetic tranny fluid 2L
- new guibo
- new throwout bearing & pilot bearing

I also have a 5spd shifter assembly from an "i" but it turns out that the "ix" shifter assembly is slightly different. Will throw it in with the whole package if requested.

PM me to discuss it more in detail.

the assembly is the same afaik. the ix shifter is quite a bit longer though.

Just to clarify = So as far as IX 5spd swaps are concerned the only IX-specific parts required are the transmission (or specifically the rear case), transfer case (or specifically the front case) + shifter lever?

Did I miss anything?
