Its a 2.3 would have thought if Vulcan
looking for a replacement it would be a 2.9
i think the gearbox as to be set up different
not a straight swop

I have an idea that the gearbox for the 2.9 24v is different to the 2.3. Anyone in the know can confirm this?

As so I see now the 24v has 6 friction and steel plates while the 2.3 has 5 of each and the 2.0 4 of each.
Seems that only the right box will fit.
Cheers Scorpio man.
Looks like I'll still be going down the box recon road when I have saved up enough pennies.

I can confirm that a 24v A4LDE will fit into either a 2.0 or a 2.3. The only thing that needs swapping is the bellhousing. The electrical connector on the gearbox is identical.
The ratio's on the 24v box are ever so slightly different but the difference is hardly noticable.
Kind regards

Yep Danny.. it will maybe go from 2.9 backwards but the main issue wa s would a 2.3 fit a 2.9? and the answer was no.. the 2.9 has 6 friction bands where the 2.3 has 5. To me that says the 2.3 can take a 2.9 box but not the other way round.....
