MakeEverything - 27/10/08 at 04:56 PM

Ive had a good loock, but i cant find any onformation on Type 9 gearbox codes, stamped on the little tag on the gearbox.

Does anyone have any ideas?

What information are you after?? I thought there were only a couple of different type 9's available (long and short input shaft versions) with the long input shaft version coming from the 2.8i cars and having a longer 1st gear.

I don't have any tag or code info but i do have this info about the type 9 and the MT75
Hope it helps
[Type 9 (1.3-2.3)

1st 3.65
2nd 1.97
3rd 1.37
4th 1
5th 0.82

Type 9 (2.8 inc 4x4 )

1st 3.36
2nd 1.81 (this is the ratio that lets the 2.8 go over 60 in 2nd )
3rd 1.26
4th 1
5th 0.83

Type 9 (P100 HD)

1st 3.91
2nd 2.29
3rd 1.38
4th 1
5th 0.82

There is a T9 diesel box too, but I'm unsure of those specs (I'd imagen its something like the P100 box) I do know it has stronger bearings and a 0.75 5th

MT75 (2.0 DOHC and 2.4 V6)

1st 3.890
2nd 2.082
3rd 1.342
4th 1
5th 0.822

MT75 (2.9 V6, 2.5 diesel AND 2.0 4x4)

1st 3.608
2nd 2.084
3rd 1.363
4th 1
5th 0.829

The MT75 ratios are 100% correct

The best answer is to fit an upgrade from GBH - makes 1st gear good for 40+ mph.

Just don't ask how much it costs...

Better still , don't tel the missus else you will get GBH . BGH box is well recommended as well

I couldn't remember the exact name...

Thanks for the info.

I have a tag on mine, attached to a bolt on the casing, the same as you get on a carburettor. It has a few numbers and letters stamped on it, i presume, to tell you whats inside.

879T AA
FOG 0L 12F

Exactly like this, on two lines, on a little tag, about 3/4" wide, and 2 1/2" long, attached by one of the case bolts.

I think it was originally from a 2.0 Sierra if it helps.....

I thought they were all the same, with shorter first and second for the larger engines.
