What normally goes bad in a 5MT?


Recommended Posts

Since my 4EAT is slowly dying, I'm going to have a used 5MT swapped into it, in about a month. Besides putting on a new clutch and flywheel (if needed), what else should be replaced? Basically what things typically break, that I should replace while the tranny is still not installed?

Replace your rear main seal in the engine. Replace all the shifter bushings. If you have the plastic seperator plate in the engine replace it with a metal one. ou may want to replace the tranny seals too.
