ok, everyone probably allready knows this...but. is the 1 litre transfer case that much different in gearing to the 1.3? i have a 1.3 running 32s and know of a 1 litre transfer case im considering buying. is it worth the hassel?
cheers

DO IT. you know atm how when u hit 5th gear on the freeway it feels like ur actually slwoing down?! 1litre case you can actually accelerate in 5th!
if you cant afford the aftermarket red. gears i HIGHLY suggest the 1lt. just be aware of different cases, lighted, non lighted, and there may be some swapping of flanges required and possibly mounts also..(easy done)
id go the 1litre and chase up some vit centers.. then airlockers both front n rear.. then watch as a cruiser or pootrol 'worth' 10x the zuki struggles to do what you do with ease... then do it again

um not sure if its the same as a WT,(im NT) but the (i think it was) input flange on mine had to be changed with the orig. 1.3 xfer as the 1lit. was fractionally smaller in diameter. also had to change one of the mounting arms. different sized holes.
there SHOULD be a link on that 'outer' place with a list and pics of all the different xfers. showing differences.
but yeh, run a 1lit. xfer here no vit centers....YET.. looks at Joe...
b4T. Pm me as i found that stripped xfer. tis yours mate. let me know if you want to pick it up or I can drop it off over weeknd

noooo, keep the WT drive shafts, just be prepared to have to swap the flanges from the WT case to the 1lit. looking for this thread with the pcis so u know what im on about..

If you can find a 1ltr case with the switch it will bolt straight up with only the front flange needing to be swapped if you use the WT arms.
If you can't then you will have to do a uni swap on the front tailshaft and swap the flanges over on the case. Not as easy to do but is worth the hassle if ya cant afford the propper gears.
If anyone is interested in doing this to their WT im more than happy to do it for them for free if i get to keep their 1.3 transfer. Ill put the 1ltr case and modified shafts im using in my zook into yours.
Pm me if interested

How much should you expect to pay for a transfer case out of a one litre considering there age and wear

i've seen people give them away or sell them for a six pack
but i think you need a post 1984 transfer case with the light so that you can still use your speedo
