So recently i smashed the diff in my manual box on my gpx soo the question is what should i do some opinions would be awsome.

1. rebuild my gearbox.... only problem will a gearbox reco place be able to find parts for a jap import??


2.buy a 2nd hand box with warranty (if i do this i will be buying one with lsd) , do the splines mirror each other? do i have to change hubs? if so cant i just use my old cv on one end?

3.cj4a gearbox simply for the shorter ratios. i would love to do this but not enough info about it, what do i need to do this? how strong is this gearbox will it handle the torque?

Depending on how badly you fucked the diff, just rebuild it. All the bits inside are generic Mitsi bits.

If it's bad & sent cogs all through the gears Detonationbustedfuckedittoblerone style, get a second hand one, reco it & put a LSD in it. You'll have trouble find one at a wrecker with a limo it.

i found a gearbox whether its got lsd or not, its a facelift 97' i havnt got the code yet but i was reading somehwere that the facelift models have a slight shorter 2nd gear is it true or just a load of crap? im sure there the same boxes.

Theres no difference, the GR has a slightly shorter final drive
