tranny swap quick question

[blueapplesoda]

Im doin my tranny swap and have my list of parts i need to get...I already have most of the parts from a donor 325is (like pedal box, tranny, support bracket blah blah), I just need to ask what should I replace new?

I already have:

ssk and all little tid bits related
knob
clutch kit-
-pressure plate
-clutch disc
-throwout bearing
-clutch alignment tool
-pilot bearing
-assembly grease
new exhaust gaskets
new pivot pin
new master cylinder
new tranny mounts

anything else?


I need these answered quickly. Thats why I posted here instead of the Transmission forum.

a new flex plate... u doin an AT-MT swap???

[Bill 84 318i]

Sounds like a decent list. I'd add a slave cylinder to it, and any seals you plan on replacing (believe you me, I regret not doing my rear main...which you also need a gasket for). Oh, and I replaced all bolts with new ones - especially do the flywheel and pressure plate ones.

Not a bad idea to change the tranny fluid either.

Yea, at-mt swap.

Rear engine seal? OK ,gasket for what? Bolts and slave...got that..

Dont forget the OEM Hood and Trunk Roundels, a must for this seasons fashon

[E304life]

Rear main seal on engine,

Front input shaft seal, rear output shaft seal and shift shaft seal for the
transmission.

You also might want to get a new nut lock plate for when you take the
ouput shaft yoke off to replace the output shaft seal.

Also not a bad idea to replace the rubber clutch line from the firewall junction
to the slave cyl.
