Hello
I just got a 92 900 turbo with a bad 5 speed(big surprise). I have a gearbox from a 92 900S which appears to be in great shape. I will pull the transmission apart for a better look see before replacement.
Now that I will have the engine out(188K miles) I'm doing the front and rear seals, alternator bushings, water pump, steering rack/pump and will take the head apart for valve seals and general cleaning. The engine is a good shape and runs well at time of purchase. The clutch and slave cylinder are almost new and in very good shape.
I intend to inspect the timing chain and guides and gears to see what they look like.
I'm thinking about the rod bearings in the lower, has anyone had the chance to look at these from a 180K turbo engine and would it be worth changing out at this time ???
Thanks for you opinions and real world experience, if you have any with the rod bearings?
