Where abouts are you?

If you do the hybrid, because the mt75 uses an integral bellhousing you need to find an V6 4x4 box for the front part of the case and pull the rear off and swap it for one from a 2wd dohc. Beware its not that easy, you need specialist tools and the knowledge. Even then the ratios are not that great, and you best of swapping the gears for the ones from a 4x4 cos box. So really 3 boxes to make one.

I recently bought a T5 box, had it rebuilt with uprated bearings, new synchros and a new 5th gear and it was only 360 to have all that done. Plus the t5 will take alot more shit.

Edit: Should of mentioned that Type 9 V6 boxes dont last long on BOA/BOB they just break! A mate of mine says they are good for about 150bhp, dont know how true that is but he broke a few.
