Subarugears Subaru 4EAT Auto conversion video

How to fit the Subarugears reversed kit to a Subaru 4EAT automatic transmission for use in a VW Vanagon.

Wow that is awesome! Can you tell me the number and type of resistor you are using?

[@ovalwingnut]

Hard core "get er done" Gear Head down-under magic. A thing of beauty :O)

[@briancohen1967]

Would this fit a type 3 or go for a manual subaru gearbox building a 1776 engine with gsxr fuel injection total loss ignition and ecu

[@sergiutabirta7636]

this is awesome, one question, does the ring and pinion need to be changed too?

[@toddtriebler]

No it doesnt

[@ronjanes9350]

How well does the ring and pinion hold up with power being applied in the reverse direction.

[@toddtriebler]

No issues in over 1 year of driving this heavy bus over 10,000 kms. Our 5 speed and 6 speed transmissions have been running on the reverse side for 10 years now.

[@MsPaiva007]

the best solution

[@PostPros]

Keep it up guys, this is so awesome!!🔥

[@DidierBan]

I need I little more detail on the transmission number. I have a TZ1B7LCACB-2L

[@ronjanes9350]

Could this be fit into an earlier year Bus 74-79 or even a Manx on a VW frame. Is the overall length or width a problem.

[@subarugears]

Yes it fits in a T2 bus - we are just finalising testing and mounts for that setup. It doesn't fit a type 1/Manx chassis without cutting through the torsion bar between the IRS pivots and cutting the framehorns off. The auto trans is long and wide.

Great Video, I learnt a lot from this, as I want to start delving into changing drive ratios in the 4 and 5eat, and this helps a lot. I heard from a little birdy that you may be Perth based, is there any truth to that? Either way, thanks for sharing and educating.

[@philliphanson9477]

Todd, My project RV does not have enough room for the TY 751 6 speed, at 670 mm in length. I would rather use an automatic, how long is the reversed 4EAT with your new cover plate?

[@toddtriebler]

All dimensions are on our website in the Automatic section.

[@terrybaptist795]

Will this fit into a type 1 Volks wagon samba bus?

[@toddtriebler]

We're not sure. It's a very tight fit. We've got a type 1 bus that we're working on squeezing it in to.

[@terrybaptist795]

Well anyways your doing amazing things keep up the good work. Keep being a rock star.👍

[@21divel]

So the front and rear wheels will spin opposite of each other.....what is the chain for?

[@jeffinillinois]

Only 2 wheel drive.
