Does the manual gearbox in a 130 surf take the W58 bellhousing to fit the 5m motor?
If not how have guys fitted 5m's into their 130 model surfs.
thanks in advance

It depends on what the gear box is in the ln130 , if its the r serires then no all I did is use my orignal box and tranfers and boult them into the new truck

I was hoping to be able to use the R series, if that's what is in it.
Using the R series box and transfer allows me to keep the interior original without chopping and changing.
If not I'll re use my w56,

the only problem with the r series box is the transfer's are a shit load weaker than the w56 ones as the r series are chain driven

they only g fit the g and w box

look up bellhousing on trademe seen a 7m r15? bellhousing the other day from memory the supra r series 2wd box had a different length input shaft so you may need to run a spacer between box and bellhousing?
hope this helps
