JR5 versus JB3

[Rallyman63]

Hello , is it possible to remove the bellhousing from the JR5 gearbox ( Twingo RS) and fit it on the JB3 gearbox ?
I want to use my JB3 gearbox with LSD and short final drive and fit it on a Twingo RS engine .

No mate it’s not possible. Totally different gearbox setups I’m afraid.

And switching the LSD and final drive into the JR5176 gearbox ? Will that fit ?

Can probably redrill the twingo block to suit jb and use a custom clutch and poss custom shafts.

Basically a load of aggro, be better off selling the jb and buying a lsd for the jr5

I don’t think there’s a diff available for the jr5 box mate

From a quick google gripper do a plate diff and RSX do a torsen to suit jr5.

Well the gripper has to be the diff of choice then. Those RSX things are pure shite

I have made a plan on how I am going to carry it out, I am going to rebuild the cylinder head with the pistons and connecting rods from the Rwingo RS engine into the K4M 760 engine, then I can continue to use my JB3 gearbox.
