BW35 question 140-160

posted by  someone claiming to be red sled on  Tue Jul 5 03:51 CST 2005 [RELATED]

When I needed to replace the BW35 in my daughter's 122, I bought a good, used one from a 164 ($75), only to find that the tail housing was a few inches longer. A little surgical shortening of the propshaft was performed and we were good to go. Ever consider upgrading to an AW71 with overdrive? Simply cut the bellhousing, rotate to the proper orientation, re-weld the bellhousing, and bolt it up. Sure, it needs to be wired up, but it's well worth the effort.
