I have a sideshift trans from a '73 2.0 car that I am planning on rebuilding. I want to order gaskets/seals ahead of time so I have them on hand. Does anyone have any experience with a seal set like this one:

QUOTE(Dr Evil @ Mar 8 2012, 04:42 PM)  Hi Jonathon. Metric. I see that others have posted seeing only .10mm gaskets. Looks like a problem with the packaging from elring. A proper transmission repair is expensive. Changing this dimension is not something I would care to play with and risk having either noise or differential damage. |

If that means expensive, then yes. However, a "proper" transmission rebuild IMHO does not need to be expensive and the gaskets need not be angstrom exact. Parts are not new anymore and the tolerance of them is in keeping with what is offered by elring in their kits. But, WTF do I know, I only do this all the time with great results for low cost, i.e. not "proper". |
