Hi all,

I've created an account on here just to ask this, but I've got a 2002 2.7 and second gear exploded on me the other day so I'm looking to get a replacement gearbox. I've heard from a few people that the 2.5 gearbox will fit my car, and has shorted ratios which I'd like as my main criticism has always been the gear ratios are just too long. If anyone has any input, or if anyone has done the swap please enlighten me on if it is possible, and if it is what I'd need to make it work.

Cheers,

Liam.
