Re: P51 Gearbox How you tell?
MA45 ran a W50 box, but then again it might be a P51. No idea and was never really fussed here, but might be worth investigating for you??
P51 Gearbox How do you tell (WITH GREAT DIFFICULTY).
You are right.Originally Posted by gianttomato
You can't without a lot of trouble.
Nothing on the outside.
MOST OBVIOUS SIGN.
The main bearing in the centre plate on a P51 is held in by four bolts.
The main bearing on a W50 is held in by a circlip.
SEEING IT THROUGH THE OIL HOLE IS IMPOSSIBLE.
if you have a skinny long finger and you crook it around to the plate you might just feel the top right bolt its 12mm.
maybe from the drain hole is OK I dont know?
