Gday lads wondering if anyone one here has done an auto conversion in their g16b sierra.

[Gwagensteve]

Yes, you can use either Vitara automatic depending on what gearing outcome you are looking for.

[Buckman]

Cheers. I'd probably want a 4 speed I think.. what vits came with the 4speed?

[Gwagensteve]

Any Vitara with. G16b

You'll need flex plate &bolts , converter, loom, TCC, shifter from the donor Vitara.
You'll need to shorten your jackshaft
You'll need to modify your transmission crossmember and use something like the trail tough fitting kit to get it in.

[MrRocky]

Any idea how much the jackshaft needs to be shortened ?

[jdk81]

Its in the install instructions for the trail tough kit

[Gwagensteve]

I don't recall the exact dimensions by it roughly halves the length of the tube.

Mine has been in a while and I have no problems with vibration or uni life.

I wonder if TT have fixed their instructions for machining the slip yoke yet?

[bogga]

These are there instructions I was supplied from TT with kit about 9 months ago. Still a fair way off from this stage but I also heard from someone the instructions for jack shaft mod were incorrect?

[Gwagensteve]

Jackshaft instructions are correct as far as I recall.

The machining guide for the yoke is completely incorrect. It only needs to be shortened 25mm from memory.
