wtb: gearbox for 1990 2.8 Mu

Postby mumanbeing » Sat Jul 17, 2021 3:05 pm

My mechanics confirmed, gearbox needs replacing. On the hunt for a gearbox to suit my solid old 1990 2.8 manual Mu. 4jb1turbo+intercooler.

I have access to a a mates parts donor Mu, it's a manual 1996 3.1 Mu if it's a match for swapping into my 2.8 the mate will give it to me for a box of beer!!!!! If it's a solution I would love to know if it's possible. I can't find any sources that confirm or deny if this is doable but it's a mint box and would save me money.

Any leads or thoughts massively appreciated. Even more so if a box could be found in the South Island, New Zealand.

Cheers folks, happy motoring!

Get the driveshaft at the same time. The only difference is the rear output.
