<div>I could be wrong, but you should easily be able to get a tr6 od box for
$3k.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have heard people say they like the 5 speed, but here’s what I like about
my TR6 od box – you really get more gears, and its so easy to shift from 2nd to
2nd od, and back. very nice in traffic. also – we did Tail of the
Dragon, and it was constant 2nd, 2nd od, 2nd, 2nd od, etc. way better than
a 5 speed.</div>

<div dir="ltr">I'm rebuilding a Stag's gearbox w OD and noticed that there are
kits available for TR6 to mate a Toyota gearbox.
<div> </div>
<div>The kits are about 1800$ then the price of the gear box. It seems that the
W** box are becoming quite expenses. so this conversion can cost upward of 3K or
more</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Are TR6 gearboxes with OD hard to come by for $3k ?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>If I had the money I would be interested as an experiment in trying
this conversion for a Stag. I've been told the be housing is about the same.
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Other than reliability and availability of repair parts of a Toyota box
what other advantages are people finding?</div>
