Thanks Stan that makes sense I think it has gearbox/axle code on compliance plate now I think about it. So do you know if they are the same gearbox from petrol too diesel same ratios and the like?
Cheers Scott.

Same. Only exception is the 4 cylinder diesel has a longer input shaft and clutch housing.

Gearboxes are different in many ways, geaxbox ratios are the same, transfer I am not sure. Main differences between your 85 petrol box and your 95 diesel is the input shafts are different, bell housing and depending on when in 85 the petrol box was built it might have the smaller 34mm idler shaft, the later 95 box will be a 38mm idler.

Thanks guys thought the input shafts may have been different was thinking of pulling 85 box out and rebuilding it to put into the 95 but if I have too change shafts need both out at same time. Be easyer too just rebuild 95mod box.
Cheers Scott.
