01E CBL re-build options

[pinotattt]

Just stripped the gearbox out due to a whine in the box and found the culprit, pinion diff bearing, which is the tell tale of the weak 1st gear for this type of box.

I was considering getting the up rated syncros here http://advancedautomotion.com/shop/p...products_id/88
but not sure if this is worth spending on a weak 1st gear box

I might just replace the bearing and seals and go for the dog box gear set when the CBL 1st gives in

Any suggestions would be appreciated

I also have the 5 speed box from the V6 which would need some modification to fit but this also has the narrow 1st gear I think

may to the left for the 2 upper boltholes in the bellhousing, you will find some stamping...fx; CBL 12345.. or GJT 234356... this letters are the ratio and year the tranny are made for.... think you will have the same ratio in front, and rearend

Thanks for your feedback

i'll have to check this as it's still under the V6. Here's a brief expaination of what i'm doing; I have both cars, the V6 coupe Quattro 2.8 AAH engine and the S4 Quattro 2.2T AAN and am currently converting the S4 engine and drive train to the Coupe as a track car. If I use the 5 speed gearbox I also have the rear differential available as i read here on the forum that the ratios are different.
I would prefer to use the 6 speed but apparently the CBL is not the right box for this project.

At the moment I have the engine and complete drive train out of the doner car S4
