How to tell what tranny i have?
Monday, December 22, 2008 6:49 PM
Ok so i got a 2.4 from the jy and it also got a tranny and the whole 9 yards so i was wondering what tranny it is like
if its

a:
Getrag
or
isuzu?

How to tell them apart?

the getrag has a kind of checker board look to the side you look directly down at as if it were in an engine bay. the izuzu is relatively smooth and does not have it.

thats the easiest way ive found to tell them apart... that and the bleeder valve on the izuzu sticks right out of the rubber plug in the side of the tranny and you can see it plain as day.



Are you scared of the changes coming? The answer is on the inside.

not to be off topic but has anyone seen a differential explode in a isusu trany

Not exploded but I took out the spider and pinion gears inside the diff.



Cant see it in that pic but the spiders are missing a couple of teeth. I still have the diff somewhere around here.

The Isuzu does not seem to take high RPM shifts very well. It also is not a very good idea to do a lot of one wheel peels with that trans either.

^ If you are hard on a tranny, the Isuzu won't last long for you. I broke 2 of them myself, they just can't stand up to abuse, especially burn outs and side-stepping the clutch. The diff is weak, so if you are set on using the isuzu tranny, at least put the geo storm diff in it.
