Vr6 vs ABF Gearbox?

[tsovociti]

Hi guys, been quite a while since ive been on here!

I need advice please, does the ABF gbox differ to the VR6's?
A friend of mine bought a VR6 and his first and 3rd gears are shot, does the ABF one fit perfectly and are the ratios different?

Regards

I think they have a different bell housing despite both being 02A..... THAT might be waaaaaaaay off, just from memory.

ABF gear box would have a 4 cyl bellhousing and vr6 a 6 cyl bellhousing. so probably wouldnt work, unless you swapped everything over, but that might be a bit more work then its worth.

Yea different bell housings (4cyl vs. 6cyl)

Not sure if the internals could be swapped.. but as above that could be a lot of effort

Thanks guys, did have a look and we bought all the internals as they are the same. We are going to rebuild the gbox.
