hi guys 

I just had an OM617 put in my 240GD from 85. 

I'd like to get a 5 speed gb. What should I look for?

Thanks :)

2 major ways

.. Getrag which is OEM 460 way .. and you can get them out of saloon 190 (?) with wrong ratios. Weak box but more civilised.

.. Steel 5 speed version of the 4 speed you already have which is what the 461 had so is right for a Wolf. Comes from a T1 van, comes in standard and low ratio, and longer so new prop. I cover this here with others;

Hey  

Thank you. 

What's the steel version called? So I can browse eBay and Google for one. :)
