3.0 m5od internals in a 4.0 m5od

[Bray D]

How difficult is the swap? I've never had a trans apart before - is it something I could do by myself or is there 200 bucks worth of special tools I'd have to buy?

I like to think I'm pretty mechanically apt but I have to rationalize the added cost of swapping internals for the lower gear.

What do you guys think?

The M5D is a simple transmission, which can be disassembled with normal shop tools. (ratchets, wrenches and the like). If you just swap the shafts, in should go quick. Might want to replace the bearings.

Awesome. Thanks for the replies guys.

I'll hit up Brett and see what he's got to say. He lives relatively close to me as well. Sweet.
