T3 TRANSMISSIONS BUILT FOR WATER-COOLED VANAGON ONLY.
Our Vanagon transmissions are completely rebuilt. The price includes the installation of our custom 3.27 Ring and Pinion (R&P) set. Our R&P will reduce your RPMs by 800, thereby increasing your gas mileage (MPGs). This is especially important for customers who have more powerful Subaru, Ford, VW 1.8T and other motor conversions for their Vanagon.
Instead of increasing tire and rim size to decrease your RPM which puts strain on your transmission, the R&P swap is the best modification you can do to save your transmission and increase your MPG. These R&P’s are brand new custom-built.
Included with the trans-axle is a rebuilt torque converter. A new oil cooler is NOT included. In addition to the automatic section, the differential section is completely rebuilt with all new bearings, seals and gaskets.
