Re: [diesel_mercedes] Whoops- different trannys

 

If you haven't already then "it's too late" . . . but - you should always keep the torque converter ON the tranny input shaft. this is so that the seals keep their seat. In reality I've let them slip off a time or two and no obvious adverse consequences. Also, I don't know what you mean by "spindles" vs. "smooth nub". Which end of the tranny are you referring to by that. The output shaft should have one of those round rubber guibo connectors. Can you be more specific.

My mom blew her trann on her SD, not sure of the year, so I dropped it and then just got done dropping my dads tranny from his parts car which is an 83 SD, and noticed the driveshafts are different. The one from my moms car has spindles, and the one from my dads has a smooth nub.
This is my first try at transmissions- are we just out of luck?
Should I swap flywheels? Should I swap torque converters?
Little help, please.
