Hey bud where did you buy the spare parts. I’m down in Australia the BMW dealers here don’t have spares parts

Do you know what all needs to be done to put the bell housing back on when it comes to the 5th and reverse gear?

[@jonmuffley709]

I tried and was really close but end up damaging a caged bearing in the bellhousing. It’s a balancing act of getting the forks and lever to all line up. I need to get this bearing and try again. Maybe I can video that as well.

@@jonmuffley709 yes please do so your video is the only video I’ve found so far that isn’t just doing the shifts pins or removing the bell housing and I’m doing a manual swap on a 2003 325xi that I welded the transfer case on to make it RWD so that’s where all this started so thanks for being one of few to make a video on this transmission 👍

Did you ever get the box back together?

[@jonmuffley709]

I actually haven’t yet. Haven’t had a need for it yet.

[@rabidu2b]

Where did you find those instructions?

[@jonmuffley709]

There is a full set of instructions on this from BMW. Lucky for me I work at a dealer and have access. This is also how I figured out how to rebuild my rear diff.
