Sonicfrog Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 When I do get around to swapping the sucky 3AT to a 5 spd, should I go with a D/R or a push button single speed? There was a PB 5 spd in a turbo coupe at the Pick-A-Part yesterday. Just wonder what you guys think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The single range in the pushbutton is high range only, plus the added complication of wiring in the 4WD pushbutton solenoid..... GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GD not to mention of the vacuum lines you have to run to make it work, plus, if something happens to one of the lines, you wn't have the 4wd when you need it most. I would go with a NA 3.90 d/r 5-speed and a 3.90 rear diff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack in Norfolk Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 forget the tranny, get the whole car! I haven't seen a turbo 4wd coupe around here in ages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subarian Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 definitely dual range. Better for getting yourself out of a jam, and less likely to have a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samo Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 D/R for sure. I've got a pushbutton and it sucks. One of these days I'll get that D/R that's sitting in John's garage *sigh* ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
