HI,
I am in the process of changing the gearbox on my W reg Fiat Ducato, its a 1.9td. I have changed gearboxes on rear wheel drive cars on many occasions, but have not done so on a front wheel drive motor since the 1970;s when I was a teenager and had a Mini Cooper .Before anyone takes this on I would have a good think about it.
I could have had it changed by a fitter who lives locally for £250 and now wish I had, laying underneath it is no fun , especially when nuts are rusted in having been there for 16 years and I am struggling to slide the gearbox back on , but come too far now so will carry on and get there in the end I hope!
So anyone not to good with spanners think long and hard about it.
Regards Dom
