Type9 gearbox

Post by Wilms »

We have a Capri Mk3 LS, 2L Pinto 4 speed,
Our problem is that we pruchased a 5 speed type 9 box off a Sierra(we think)
when we came to fit it, the input shaft was different, the rear g/box mount is
further back by 80mm although the box length is the same as the 4 speed.
info please on which clutch plate to fit and is there a modified rear mount to fit the 5 speed to the same point as the 4 speed.
Any help would be appreciated and save us remaning new mounts.

We, is me and my young son who's car it is.

I am also having this problem with my mk3 calypso.
Iv got the right clutch and the gear box and engine are coming together ok but dust guard is the wrong shape and mounts dont match up.
Sorry for invading your post wilms
