Fitting RB25DET gearbox to RB30DET

[drunkenmaster]

OK guys,

This is my clutch and flywheel on my RB30 block, and here is my RB25DET box which I wish to fit.

Going by the photos and any prior experience you guys may have, are there any tricks or traps for young players like myself who are doing this for the first time?

Should anything be replaced at this point in time?

Thanks

They are the same block.... I would have thought the box would go straight up to it.

You should replace the carrier bearing. Make sure you give the input shaft on the box a light lube with some grease before putting it on. Replace the extension housing seal at the back of the box also.

Thanks for the info,

I have attached a photo of a bearing I was supplied, is this what you were referring to?

As for the seal, is this a solid gasket or liquid sealant?

Thanks
