MT75 5-speed Swap

[DPDISXR4Ti]

For anyone who has ever wanted to do a 5-speed swap into a Scorpio, but didn't want to deal with the various (but different) hassles of a T-5 or T-9, here's the car for you:

Since this is obviously a transient eBay link, here's the relavant info on the MT75 swap - just bear in mind, he's referring to a Cologne V6-powered xr4x4....

parts used are ; mt75 hybrid gearbox using xr4x4 bellhousing,center mounted hydraulic release bearing,2.5 vm diesel gear ratios,long input shaft

- new spigot bush,new 3 piece clutch,new release bearing and hydaulic actuator
- second hand xr4x4 flywheel
- clutch pedal/steering column assembly,gear lever gaiter,prop shaft from a 'm'reg granada manual

The mt75 gearbox is the later type with the electronic speedo drive [plus mechanical] so as the cruise control and fuel computer still work

This could also be a solution for fitment in an XR, perhaps with the Cologne 4.0.

Give me a T9 over a 75 any day of the week

Hybrid box which is a V6 4x4 front casing mated to a 2.0 DOHC rear casing using the internals from the V6 with a transit oil burner 5th gear will set you back £350 here, 2.9 V6 used flywheel up to £100

Can also use a 2.8 V6 flywheel but Clutch arm pivot needs to be modified to take up the difference in spacing. 2.8 flywheel is approx 2 KG lighter then the 2.9 one

2wd V6 MT75 are more common across the channel and cheaper.
