Can a GU manual gearbox and transfer case (td42)
go into a GQ (td42)
Is it a straight swap or is there mods to do??

Cheers

Tom.

Have you tried the search function ?

This was covered recently, there is a difference with the gear lever position if I remember correctly.

Same gearbox entirely? only the gear shifter is in a different spot......?

Can you simply change over the top selector cover and be done with it?

Good luck swapping that top selector cover over, as the bolt pattern isn't the same.
If you re-drilled some holes and filled up some others, you might be able to make it fit.
