lostinthe202 Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 I'm going to look at a 5spd d/r trans latter this week and I remember reading once upon a time that sometimes auto dismantlers will remove the stub axle with the axles instead of dealing with the drive pin. Do the stub axles just pop out/in? new seal, new retaining clip? If I get there and find them missing could I (after talking them down on the price:brow:) use the stub axles from the push-button trans that is currently in my GL10? Thanks!!

Will- You could only use the stub shafts if you stayed with the turbo axles. They should just pop out I can't remember details. But if you use the stub shafts out of your tranny they will only fit turbo axles which you'll have to remember if you ever order new axles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what the push-button is out of. The rear diff is still a 3.7 but I have no idea what the front is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you will know if it is a turbo tranny or not...I hate it when people screw with stuff and they really don't know what they are doing! It makes a lot more work for the next person Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Do the stub axles just pop out/in? no, only on the automatics do the stub axles just pop out that easily. not true of the manual trans, so those won't (or shouldn't!) be missing. new seal, new retaining clip? even on the ones where the stub pulls out the new seal is not that simple as it's behind the retaining plate. that needs to be removed first to replace the seal. it needs to be done just right too since it also adjusts the backlash for the diff.
