Hey just wondering what is the differecnce between a 1L and a 1.3L TC. I've got a 1.3 and i want to sell the car but keep alot of parts off it, so a new TC is in order. i went to the local pick-payless but all he had was old sierras... will it bolt in is there a different ratio in them, would a 1L hand brake bolt onto the back of a 1.3 TC???

Thanks
Josh

as far as i have heard they are the same but coily ones are difrent they both havd the one to one ratio in high and as for low it dosent realy matter, but im not 100% on this it is just what has been told to me. (there is no harm in trying it out)

1ltr case with wires coming out of it will bolt up to a 1.3 you just need
to swap the flanges over and it will give a 12% reduction in both high and low range.

I never relised that you needed different flanges. It looks like im buying a 1L case. Does anyone have flanges for 1.3 driveline.

just a question, why are you wanting a 1l case, your sig says you have 6.5:1's

Um i want to get a lwb but keep alot of parts off my zook now. So i need to keep my TC with gearing. It should save me monies :D My zook will go back to bog standard except for a 50mm BL.

If your truck is engineered for 31, 50mm spring and a BL. Can you go back to standard tyres, springs but keeping the BL without re-engineering?
