Hey Guys,
Converting from auto to manual. I bought a 2dr 99 Vitara 1.6 SOHC for parts, my rig is a 99 Tracker 2.0L. Just curious, It appears that it should be a direct swap. Anyone have any experience with this swap?
I also noticed that my clutch fork is damaged, the pivit ball inside of the transmission actually wore through the fork! Never seen this before, I'm assuming it was due to a seized throwout bearing?
Any things I should check while the transmission is out? It's high mileage but the fluid was nice and clear.
And from what I've read, the 2.0L/1.6 transmission, clutch and bolt pattern is all the same, correct?
Thanks in advance!
Brandon
