Gwywnc Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Looks like I might need to get a new trans. I have a subaru gl with the automatic 4wd, what would I need to convert it over to a 4 or 5 speed dual range? I know nothing about were to start and would love the help thanks...

BratRod Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Why do you think your transmission is bad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subruise Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 you would need a trans, clutch kit, pedal box, cltch cable, possibly the xmember as well but i dont remember it looking different. he thinks the trans is going bad because its a G3 AT. lol, probably the governor if its the trans at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwywnc Posted March 13, 2014 Author Share Posted March 13, 2014 I'm not sure the trans is bad, the other day I was going down the interstate and went to slow down and the car completely locked up, had it towed home and when he was unloading it and what ever had locked up unlocked. I talked to a couple people and the said it was prolly the brake caliper so I rebuilt them and when u drove it it ran fine and changed gears but when I let off the gas there is this grinding/ whining sound. I could use some help cause I'm not sure what could be wrong. I had also drained all the trans fluid and it was free of all metal or anything...

suprjohn Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Not meaning to hijack a thread (but shamelessly doing it anyway ), what if a guy wanted to go the other way? Go from manual to automatic? John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesFox Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 the front diff is broken. replacing the trans is best. repairing it is too expensive. findin another good 3at would be harder than swapping a 5 spd. A donor car will give you all the parts you need. All of the parts will be bolt up with no mods. These swaps have been documented many times if you find them in the search. google brings results from USMB as their search function is more productive with results vs the forum's search. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
