I'm in the process of swapping in a w50 (5 spd) into my 77. It used to have the 4 spd so this will be a much needed upgrade. The w50 is bolted onto the 20R, and I'm in the process of modifying the transmission bracket. I thought I would be able to just drill the extra holes needed to bolt the w50 mount onto the plate, but it appears I will need to do a bit more work.

From what I can tell the mount on the transmission sits a little lower than the 4 spd did so I will need to modify the crossmember a little more than anticipated. Has anyone done this? I have a welder and have no problem cutting a welding something that will work, but I was curious what other people have done.

 

Someone had swapped in a 5 speed to mine from a 4 speed. I cant quite remember exactly how they did it as ive now modified it for my LS swap, bu i know the basically cut 8-10in out of the center, welded a piece of .187 sheet metal to join them again, and added some angle iron to the bottom as a stiffener. then adjusted to original mount to where they needed it and welded that in. I kept the bottom piece of metal, but boxed everything in, added some gussets and plating and burned it all in. Heres a pic so you have an idea.

 

Cut the center out of mine and and used a c notch my friend had laying around. Its 2x3 3/16 wall. Cut the top center section Out so the trans would drop In

 

Yo quiero colocar la transmisión de 4 velocidades a mi pickup 79 pero queda separado cerca de 3" ¿ que puedo hacer?

 

Separado de donde? De el motor o donde sienta atras?

 

Exacto de donde se sienta y no se ve como colocar el soporte que deberia llevar.

 

Tiene el soporte de metal que cruza de lado a lado de el chassis? Y tambien necessita el soporte de goma entre la transmision y el soporte de metal

Si tiene el soporte de metal pero el soporte de goma no se como buscarlo porque trae esa transmision que no corresponde al pickup.

no sabes de que salio la transmision?

 

Asi es, no tengo la seguridad si era de un Celica trae un numero de serie 33111- 31010 pero no encuentro informacion.

 

Puedes manda una foto de tu transmision? Y de la locacion en la transmision donde se atornilla el soporte de goma. Porque como hay variastransmisiones de 4 velocidades. Puede ser de la serie L o serie W.
