Trev Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 Have done celica GT4 boxes which are quite similar, You have to pull the box off the dowels and rotate it slightly and then pull it away, Diaphragm sounds like the alltrac controller, Not sure how to remove it, Where are you located?

rockcox Posted May 6, 2010 Report Share Posted May 6, 2010 Lol i doing it now.. I'm having issues too if you figure out a easy way give me a yell. I had a great time removing my gearbox, I had to use a cold chisel to "crack the seal" just make sure you do it between the block and the steel plate so as not to mash up the alloy of the bell housing. The plate ended up pretty bent, but I just knocked it flat with a rubber mallet on wood. once it was moved away from the block far enough to clear the dowels it moved freely. I had the engine hanging on the winch and a jack under the gearbox to rotate the box a little bit. Be careful not to let the gearbox hang on the input shaft. the only other thing is to remove the vacuum diff-lock (diaphragm thingie) and remove all of the bolts that attach to the block and the gearbox supports. Some are hard to see and get to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yrreda25 Posted May 6, 2010 Report Share Posted May 6, 2010 i don't think that there is any easy way to get the gearbox out, evertime i have done it ( a few times) i have pulled the whole lot out the top. in sections, because the gearbox in nearly shrink wrapped around the back of the motor i would think that you will have to lift and move the engine to get the box out the bottom. from memory there is 4 x 14mm(spanner size) bolts holding the vacum unit on, 2 from the side and 2 from the top. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck Mine Is going together now i have mounted the transfer case on the engine and made a trolley for the gearbox. I think if i was going to do it again i would leave the transfer case attached spilt the gearbox from there. I see how i go but using this method i was able to take the gearbox off by myself If it works out ill share maybe it might help. I gave myself two weekends to get the engine in, its taken 5 weeks (other problems) but i have learnt a lot will be alot easier next time.

Instigator Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 I did a 20v conversion and know a guy with a GZE one and the consensus is you have to drop the motor and everything out the bottom, lift car over motor and then take the box off. If you're feeling energetic and want to do another one when you're done mine's for sale with a bunk clutch :blinks: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Womble1972 Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 I got mine back together today the idea i had to make it easier was no good. Its hard getting the engine to mate with the gearbox took me 5hrs. Getting it back in was easier with the exhaust manifold off but you will need three people to guide it in. Ill start it up next weekend good luck with yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
