    Talk to me about gearbox's

    Gents venturing into the unknown hopefully someone can help out ?

    How hard would these be to fit does the gearbox need to be removed and opened up ?

    RE: Talk to me about gearbox's

    How's things Gar.
    I have experience with changing the above on hondas. Very easy to do (10-20min). I just did a little read about the m54 box and it seems to be the same theory as the H box.

    Not m54 box but similar.
    Where 14,15,16 bolts onto the box will be the similar to yours.

    I just saw the two links below and it seems to be a little bit tricky if located on top of the box.
