Is there any hydraulic gearboxs that will fit an XU engine? Cant seem to find anything anywhere. Only the EW gearboxs are coming up when I try searching for a hydraulic box but am sure the EW box isnt compatible with the XU block?________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

mod the standard box for a concentric bearing or use a BE4 casing from a DW engine which has a clutch arm poking out the front, there are hydraulic variants of this type.________________________________________ 205 GTIXsara HDI |

I would imagine the simplest solution would be an aftermarket hydraulic release bearing from AP or similar. ________________________________________ www.bridgecraftmotorsport.co.uk |

I have read into it a little and found the BE3 box is easy to convert to hydraulic. I dont want to run a 6 speed box either________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

yep, off the shelf Concentric bearing from the lines of AP probably do the trick and a few holes drilled in the casing for the hydraulic lines is all that's required.________________________________________ 205 GTIXsara HDI |

that wont be much help as the part of the casing you need is specific to the EW engine, and will not fit the XU.________________________________________ 205 GTIXsara HDI |
