I just got an 82 Diesel luv 4x4 and the shifter is popping out of 4th gear. My question is: Will the rear half of the trans swap with any of the 5 speed 4x4 trannies? Help is greatly appreciated. LL

No, 4speed belhousings(front casing) will not bolt to 5speed trannies.

No, the 5-speed 4wd transmission won't swap with the older 4-speed (not easily, anyway). Isuzu had to modify the frame to accommodate the 5-speed 4wd transmission for '86 and '87.

D'oh! and thanks for the info.

One more question if I may: will the front case of the Diesel 4 speed swap with the gas 4 speed trannies? I have a low mile gas 4x4 4 speed I could use. LL

OK , IT IS POSSIABLE THAT THE 4SPD WILL WORK, , HOWEVER IT MUST BE A DSL TO WORK, THE PROB COMES FROM THE FRT BEARINGS RETAINER , IF IT HAS 6 BOLTS ATTACHING IT TO THE FRT CASE IT SHOULD FIT THE 5SPD GAS TRANS , IF IT HAS ONLY 4 BOLTS HOLDING IT ON IT WONT WORK, , THE PROB IS THE CLUTCH THROWOUT PIVOT BALL IS ON THE RETAINER , FOR THE DSL ENG, AND ON THE CASE FOR THE GAS AND MOST OF THE 4 SPDS, , THE RETAINERS ARE NOT INTER CHANGEABLE BETWEEN THE GAS AND THE DSL ENG , YOU MUST HAVE THE DSL RETAINER FOR THE CLUTCH ARM

NOW FOR THE ODD PART SOME OF THOSE RETAINERS WERE CAST WITH BOTH OF THE PIVOT BOLT MOUNTING PODS ON THEM, BUT THEY ARE IN DIFF LOCATIONS ON THE GAS VERSION AND THE DSL VERSION, SEEMS ODD THEY DID THAT , SO TO MAKE IT BRIEF IF THE FRT RETAINER FROM THE 4 SPD DSL HAS 6 BOLT HOLES IT SHOULD WORK ON THE GAS TRANS TO CONVERT IT TO THE DSL TRANS

ONE OTHER NOTE IF ANY OF THE TRANS HAPPENS TO HAVE THE LOWER FRT COUNTER SHAFT BEARING THAT IS A NEEDLE BEARING IT WONT WORK FOR THE DSL SWAP, IT MUST HAVE THE LARGER BALL BEARINGS AND THEY ARE THE SAME BALL BEARING FROM 81 UP INTO THE MID 90,S , JERRY
