craggsy 91 Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Yes you can get a 02m from a 4mo and swap over. Not an easy task tho, just live with 3.5k at 70 mph as it's nit stressing the engine at all28.8mpg isn't bad going to be honest, if you want better then drive slower or get a diesel run around Link to post Share on other sites
matty.vrt 120 Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Like craggsy said you could fit a 02m out of a 4 motion but your looking at a conversion cost of no less than £1000 a much cheaper option would be to fit a diesel final drive. Link to post Share on other sites
bungy 2 Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 The 4motion box is lower geared and will probably use more fuel. An O2M box with diesel final drive would be nice but expensive. Link to post Share on other sites
vr6guy 29 Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 would a diesel gearbox fit? Link to post Share on other sites
