Swapping out H55F input shaft's for 13BT ???? (1 Viewer)

[xtremitys]

I have a H55F gearbox from a series 60 that had a "H" series diesel infron of it , I will be building a 13BT in the coming months & wondering if it is possible to swap out the input shafts to suit the 13BT ( from shorter heavy spline to longer fine spline shaft ) ???

spoke to landcruiser wrecker last weekend & he reckn's it's not possible with some of them , 1st i heard about that !

Yes.

yeah, should be possible.
people swap out the b-series input so they can run the h55f behind a 2F...so it should work the other way around as well

A buddy here swap the input from a H55H with 2H to match the 3B turbo that it had .. the issue is not recomended coz the teeth inside the tranny have a diferent wear .. but Actually he's haven't any issue with the tranny ..

wonder why they wear differently ? is it purelly about the input length factor or different torgue ratings of the each engine ?

 

[yotawheeler]

the wear issue is probably the same as in bearings...not everything wears exactly the same..

It's something like a ring and pinion .. you can swap ( ok you could do but you know aren't your best bet ) one pinion from a one set and mix it with ring coming from another set ..

It's the same here ..

A bit like wearing 2 different boots on your feet of the same size then -lol wonder what parts you have to change for it to like when they left the factory ?

I'm now dropp'n this possible input change & just gettn a rebuilt box & t/case off a felow member on this site ( his dropped project ) , save me the hassle of building it . gettn rid of this box ( H ) series now .
