Identify H151 age?

[themorb]

Does anybody know how to identify the build date of an H151f transmission? I have one that I want to rebuild, but I don't know which syncro rings to get. I can't see a serial number or any markings anywhere on my transmission, but I will admit it is a bit dirty at the moment...

Example:
33039-60011 (08/1992 - 07/1996)
33039-60020 (08/1996 - 12/1997)

Plan B would be to disassemble it and look at the rings, but I still don't know how to tell which is which. Anyway I would prefer to have the parts on hand before disassembly if possible!

There's 3 styles for sure of those transmissions...to tell between the two later styles I believe you have to open it up. I was looking at the part numbers and comparing what changed and dumping the part numbers into google to see if they physically look different. There's a few hubs in there that look different between the two later styles which would be a solid identifier. I've also heard you cant mix synchros, you have to get the right ones.

@Tapage More than what's in th FSM?

My FSM repair manual for chassis and body 1990 80 series has a 50 + page disassembly/ reassembly guide in it

Sounds like I have to take it apart... guess I will wait for some good weather because once it's out I'm stuck commuting on my motorbike until it's back together!

There is some info in this thread on visual differences. Mine is a 93, build date 92/08, confirmable by a frame number that is after the big change in parts. If you want to compare to anything on mine, let me know.

IIRC @Jan-78FJ40 may have some info, as he rebuilt one before.
