Been trying to find out a bit about the factory gearbox to see if it will hold up to the rota & worked out some cool shit..

The spiket is the same size & spline as a rx2,3,4's so clutch will be sweet :shock:

The rear axles {don't forget its transaxle} will be mint as the universals at each end of them are the same as a RX2,3 drive shaft & the splines are also the same size ect as a early rx's.. :shock:

Also found out the spider gear in the diff are the same as RX2,3's along with a lot of the components in the gear box.

So basicly it should be as strong as a rx2,3,4 & even early 7

An besides its a mint 4spd :badgrin::badgrin:

Sick/looks broken! :lol: Hahaha! What about sliding doors into the back? Nothing like a good horizontal guilatine. But you could push button stopers on it to stop it from doing so on the inside, have it slide on a baracket into the back. I've thought it out in my head, pitty it's probebly a no go. Would be sick. Such the best van ever. The only Rota Bongo I think I'll ever like! :D

O yeah, also needs a big lazer cut chromed old school rota logo the size of the VW Kombi badge!
