New improved generation gearbox beam for BMW 5 and 6 speed gearboxes from both ZF and Getrag for Volvo 700 and 900 series.
This new generation gearbox beam fits bolt on in the Volvo 700 and 900 series and can be attached in many ways longitudinally and therefore now fits most variants of manual gearboxes from BMW. Both 5 and 6-speed gearboxes from both ZF and Getrag. For the later 6-speed gearboxes from around the 2000s with a loose bracket at the back of the gearbox, you need to supplement with our bracket AS-002004-10.
Also fits the BMW DCT gearbox GS7D36SG if you supplement with our bracket AS-002004-11.
See example pictures with measurements to check that it fits your gearbox.
This new gearbox beam is made to fit bolt on with our gimbal safety loop AS-002010-01.
ATTENTION!
– The larger gearboxes usually require that you cut away some spills in the gearbox and also that you knock out space in the gearbox tunnel.
– Always check that the cardan runs in a straight line against the support bearing after assembly. Otherwise, the hard disk may wear out prematurely.
– There are different inclinations on BMW’s petrol engines and diesel engines. But you can e.g. don’t put a diesel gearbox on an M50 even if they fit together with the others, because the gearbox will then tilt 10 degrees if you don’t re-weld it.
– If the gearbox used is modified with a new sweep that is welded, this must be well done and with the correct slope for it to fit perfectly.
