Anyone have a picture of a 4 speed trans?
« on: February 08, 2007, 02:54:57 »
Hi,
The thread on updating to a modern 5-speed has got me thinking about possible donors and I was wondering if anyone had a picture of a 4 speed transmission so I can see where the linkages attach etc?
Thanks,
Pat

Shvegel,
This is a picture of the box out of my 280 SL

I believe Jeff's pictures in the post below are for a column shift box.

Here's a five speed conversion for a 300 SL box by a German company:

Naj is right.  Sorry for the error.  Maybe this will give you some idea of the linkage.
