Okay well I would have PM'd this poster but he hasn't been on since 2013 lol

It seems as if he didn't need to replace the housing to change the gears? I have seen a number of posts saying you have to have the M/T housing...but according to this all he bought was the gears and a LSD...if anyone has experience with the 7 A/T and the gear swap and can help me sort out the confusion I'd appreciate it as I am looking into a new LSD and I am considering just staying N/A....thanks!!

 

you will need the Differential from a M/T to work with the auto no way around it!

you do not need to change out the drive shaft..you just swap out the flange from the auto to the M/T

Thanks man...yah I figured as much so I have been figuring it into the budget..this is exactly the kind of mod I wanted for my car and I have literally spent 2 days digging into it haha but I came across that post and it makes it seem like he swapped them straight in lol

 

If ypu dont mind me asking...How is your gear mod holding up? Had any issues with it?

 

if you want to go the easiest route, you can try sourcing a Mt vert diff. it comes with 3.90 gears, all you would have to do is swap the pinion out for the AT one from your old diff and you're good to go. I have 3.90 gears in my 7at and I feel they are perfect, any shorter gearing and first and second gears would be worthless w/o awd.

 

0 issues.. I wish this would have been the first mod I have done!
love the car with the 4.08
