Photos of 4 Speed Auto 1985. 280GE
Hi there
I have a lwb 1985 g wagon and we are putting back in a reconditioned 4 speed auto box! After installing there is a vibration and we may be missing a bracket from the gear box to the transfer case? Could anyone please send a picture underneath their G to see if we've put it back right and if we're missing any thing else? Any help would be appreciated.
A manual 5 speed getrag box will give much better mpg and better performance
Agree if he's sticking to originality
From the other site, he got the answer and I provided a couple of pictures of the brace from the engine or gearbox to the transfer box. Its an A-frame affair and MB no longer make it, so if its lost you need a spare part. You get different lengths depending on 6 cylinder or 4 cylinder etc.
Its also possible to be mis-assembly of the prop shafts (not in original orientation?), but the fact that the brace is not there is a pretty good start.
