Hi,
I am new to this blog and need some advice regarding changing the gearbox on my LC 100, 2000 Model. It originally has a 4 speed gearbox as you all know. I am considering changing the gearbox to the 5 speed one that came fitted on LC 100, 2003 to 2005 model. The purpose/idea is to have lower RPM on highway driving resulting in lower noise and higher fuel efficiency. My questions on the issue, if someone could guide me, are:
1. Does the 5 speed gearbox fit on the original 2000 model engine housing as such or does some alteration need to be made?
2. Do I need to change the differentials with the change of gearbox?
3. Do I need to change the 4×4 gearbox too?
4. What about the Electronic Command System (ECS)/computer? Would the new, 5 speed gearbox, need its own command system/computer control or would the old one work?
5. If a new ECS/computer is needed to be installed, that comes with the 5 speed gearbox, would it work fine with the old engine?
