Anyone have any info on swapping a Volvo 4 speed automatic for a Zuk 3 speed auto? I've heard of this swap, would like to hear from someone who's actually done it. What trans from what Volvo, any machining to be done, any special parts , how it's done etc. Info greatly appreciated.

Taken out of TT's thread so we're not hyjacking it...

I've tried to search for the info, and it sounds like a good solution, just need more INFO! What type and model of car, etc, what mods need to be done, so on and so forth, etc, etc, .

bentparts,
I didn't re-read this whole article to see if it's the one that has all the "good info" in it (I'm not on my computer where I have a few threads bookmarked), but I'm pretty sure this is it...

Basically someone found out there's volvo 4-speed transmissions that are the older style (mechanical) shifting. Models ending with "E" are electronically shifted. You need to use a Tracker bell housing (ironically I think he bought his from TT  ), and that bolts right up to the proper Volvo transmission. If that's not the link, let me know and I'll get you the right one when I'm at home.

Cool, Thanks, Jeremiah. Lots of good info there.
