G'day guys need your expertise I got a ef that has lost 2nd gear iv looked around and had found a vn vp t5 and found the hard way with the pocket bearing changing the imput shaft with out going further into it I have found a xf t5 my question will xf t5 fit ef 97 4.0
Thanks

T5 numbers
Xf t5 0552-066900
Ef t5 0552-066903

The XF T5 gearbox will not directly fit your EF 97 4.0 without modifications. While both are T5 gearboxes, there are differences in the input shaft lengths, bellhousing bolt patterns, and other specifics between the XF and EF models. You'll likely need to swap parts like the bellhousing and input shaft, or modify them to fit correctly. It would be best to consult a transmission expert for a more detailed assessment of compatibility and potential adjustments.

i can't tell you exactly what you need to know ...... but your talking about 2 differant boxes [from my understanding].
