Shifter Rebuild Kit (K-50)

[KaboomJohn111]

Anyone know where to buy a new shifter rebuild kit for K-50 box (on KE70)

Or does anyone have a new shifter rebuild kit

 

Also Front and Rear oil seals

 

Swapping K-40 for a K-50 (since I use freeway quite often)

Just though I'd do a small amount of maintenance (Already got new filter and sump seal)

 

One last thing

 

Penrite 80w-90 or Castrol VMX 80?

Fitting a new front gearbox seal to a K50 will be a challenge, as the gearbox has to be deconstructed to get at it i.e. it is fitted from the inside, not under a front cover like say a T50. This makes it uneconomical for all but the most hardened Corolla nut. For the price of getting a shop to fit it, you might be better off finding one that isn't leaking, or even finding a K-T bellhousing.

 

However www.amayama.com will have them.

 

Edit, unless you mean engine main seals. In which case Amayama, or Repco et al.

>penrite....

Fitting the replacement seal is no problem for me, The seals in it aren't leaking, But I know this box has been sitting around for some time when I got it

Plus mate runs a shop in case I need some help

I've just been struggling to find someone who sells them (not to mention how many times they though I was wanting main engine seals)

 

@Clapped Out, so your saying go penrite?

 

Also I do need to change the Plastic seat for the shifter (hence why i'm looking for a kit) it's split completely, So does amayama have that too?
