TS gearbox into GTV6

Hi Everyone. :D

I am currently undertaking the "swap" of the (1990) 75 TS Box into an (1981) GTV6.

I have sent the 75 TS gearbox away to have bearings replaced so I am a little confused at the minute.

Firstly the wheelbase is different on the transaxles. i.e the 75 has a wider wheelbase.

My question is basically:

Should/Can I fit the LSD gearbox to the original transaxle and use the GTV6 driveshafts & brake disks with the spacers (Will that actually work?) or can I simply fit the entire 75 gearbox/transaxle/anti-roll bar system directly into the GTV6, therefore using the longer 75 driveshafts?

Help is much appreciated.

Johnny,

I think you will find that you should be able to install the complete "A" frame with all the hardware in place in one go.

Matter of fact I am about to make a jig that will do just that all in one go but in my case, I will use you a hoist to lower the car onto the assembly.

You would probably use a couple of jacks, with care !!
