iX 1.9 Z3 Shifter

[ghatid]

I installed all the linkages, carrier etc with the trans/ transfer case bolted up when doing my manual swap earlier this week, which means the reverse can also be done.

-Pull the wiring harness inside the engine bay up above the valve cover/ intake manifold.
-Unbolt the rear trans/transmission mount, with the entire assembly hanging as low as possible.
-Have someone inside the car guide the selector rod down while you have both hands on either side of the trans from underneath.
-Install washers then clip.
-Have your helper guide the carrier down to you, then install the clip and bolt the rear carrier mount to the body.
Install shift lever into carrier, add washers to the linkage, then clip.

DONE

That sounds like it might just work. I'll give it a shot. Thanks!

Also forgot to add, transmission to transfer case is the large guibo, trans to rear driveshaft is the regular small guibo, and front driveshaft to front diff is IX specific. guibo

Isn't there a guibo that can be swapped into the front driveshaft to get a smidge more spline engagement?

yeah you can use a rear one up front but you need a longer centering pin (X5) and there's still issues with the bolts clearing that bracket thing on the bottom of the transmission.

Ahh.... Wasn't aware it's not a bolt-in
