Hey. Nice video. I have a w58 that has a noisy input shaft bearing. Considering doing it myself. Difficult? Have you ever done a video of that? Any advice?
Thank you. My sons supra has the same issue I'm not sure when we will be tackling that tho but it will be a first. We have opened my 2 w58's and swapped parts just haven't changed any bearings. We will record it for sure tho sorry I don't have a video to help you out. If I find a good one or a write up I'll get you a link 🤙🏼
I have a cube brand style shifter currently. The shifter is tall but has a nice short throw. The one in the video was a random short shifter I got off of eBay it wasn’t that comfortable shifting a bit of a reach for 5th gear
Your video helped me when re-installing my W58. Especially on where the grease goes. Thanks for posting this.
That’s awesome glad I could help 🤘🏼
Are the w58 and w59 shifter housings the same? I know the ratios are shorter in the 59 and slightly smaller case as well thanks.
Dude - awesome install video! Super-clean motor/trans combo and bet it's going to go great in the car.
Thanks a lot bro 🤙🏼
Very helpful thank you bro
You are very welcome 🤙🏼🫡

hey do these bushings work on the stock transmission?
Yes they do 👍
What did you use to paint the transmission?
A high temperature engine paint will do the job 🤙🏼
What shifter did you go with. I'm having difficulty finding one that fits my w58.
