What is the difference in a non overdrive transmission for the TR4 and TR6?
Can I put a six trans in my four without any modifications?
TIA,
Peter

Hi Peter,
You can do this . .but you need to change the . . .I think it is called the
front cover.
It is the part that the throw out bearing assembly slides on.
One is shorter than the other . . .
I think it is because of the different styles of clutches . . . Diaphragm in
the 6's vs coil spring pack in the early TR's.
In any event . . . that stuff needs to be changed . . . and of course you
need to use the correct throwout bearing.
If you have more questions, just ask and I can look into the details a more
closely.
I've done this several times swapping back and forth between my TR6 and TR4.
