Mazda Mpv Tranny

[ELVISDOGBREATH]

I talked to his fellow who rebuids trannies and he said you could use a MPV tranny in a pathy. Does anyone know anything about this?

MPVs are front wheel drive with a AWD alternative if I remember correctly. So.....yeah! I wll double cheak that though.

 

 

Edit, ok I was wrong. RWD and 4wd are the options. I dont know how everything would bolt up both at the bell housing and crossmembers. I would be worried about overall strength being the MPV is not a off road type vehicle. But I could be wrong!

Actually, looking more, it looks like a few Mazda models had them.

Yup. As long as the wiring and linkages and mounts match it should be the same thing.

[speedbuggy67]

is it the same tranny or stronger/weaker?
