    Sierra 1.8 GL D Gearbox

    Mornin peeps... I have come across an old Sierra 1.8 GL Diesel... the body is shot but the car is complete, I'm basically thinking of the running gear for a project, my question is, are the gearbox and diff gearing ratio's as the petrol models? would it have a type 9 box on it?

    think all diesel cars had the type9 gearbox, gear ratio's are different

    Diesel box input shaft is longer than a petrol it's in between a 2.8 and a normal petrol. But it can be swapped with the short petrol one, has the same amount of teeth on it.
