j-spec bg tranz, axles and tranz mounts?

[ryan1]

i will be picking up a j-spec bpt tranz, my car is a 90 awd pro,
what front axles will i need and are the mounts for the sohc awd work on the j-spec dohc tranz?
thanks

You need axles for a 90 4wd Pro MTX. The mounts are exactly the same.

do nothing different. I used my stock mounts and axles. if it wasn't so heavy, it'd float right into place without thinking.

this is all assuming you have a 5spd to begin with.
otherwise, you have some sourcing to do.

this trans weighs a ton! im use to my g series that i can pick up with 2 fingers

[almighty4wd]

its only 160lbs. that's pretty light.

It's easiest to get that thing in and out if you remove the radiator and LF suspension. Also having a lift and a tranny jack lessens the pain.

the only dif in mounts is the front mount for a gtx has a slight dip.this is to properly fit the charge pipe of the vj20 turbo to the side mount.

thanks for all the help.
so i can you use all the sohc axles and mounts, thanks again.

did mazda offer thicker axles , like on the real j-spec cars that came with the dohc and boost or are they all the same.
thanks

your stock axles should be fine... heck, i'm putting down almost 300whp through two stock axles LOL

[me109]

They were all the same. The trans is weak enough that you don't want really strong axles.

[ryan1]

what about the speedo gear will the sohc work in the dohc tranz?
im going to be useing a dohc 7k redline cluster also.

[me109]

The gear is the same. The speedometer itself is different.
