T50 In Ke70 Problems

[KE70slider]

hey guys

 

i just got hold of a k-t bell housing and a new motor.

i have it all sitting in the car. but the g/box crossmember doesnt line up with and holes in the car

is there a certain gbox mout i have to use or do i have to make a custom one?

 

cheers Ryan

Just slot the holes in the one you've got 5-10mm and you'll be apples. :( :D Or maybe that was to line up with the second set of holes in a 30/55. how far off are they?

 

Oh and cable or hydro? I'll add you to the "K-T rollcall" thread. :D

its a cable one. they are bout 30mm off. i might just weld 2 strips to the original crossmember and drill appropriatley

[Taz_Rx]

Does the KE70 have 2x set of holes under it?

 

If so turn the cross member around 180* and see how far off the second set of holes is.

don't no if it helps but i had a ae71 cross member and the three holes for the gearbox mount where way off centre.

 

can't check how much as ive sold it,but defently way off centre.

They only go one way, so as Taz Rx said turn it around.

I assume you are using a T50 crossmember as they are different?

[KE70slider]

nope I'm using a original ke70 one do i need an ae71 one? i just drilled the rubber mount holes to suit the ke70 crossmember

[LukeAE71]

I am guessing you need a T50 crossmember, manual one too as the autos are different also.

 

Even though you have drilled for the rubber mount holes the gearbox mount position might be further forward/back from k50 to t50.

[KE70slider]

no worries will look into that

 

thanks for the help

The CM that came on my K-T50 was the same as a K40/50 one. Not sure if thats the " original" one though.
