How can you tell between a sierra 4x4 box and a cossy 4x4 box. From pictures i have seen it looks like the clutch arm opening is on the opposite side (drivers) on the sierra 4x4 and it is on passenger side for cossy 4x4 box.
can any oe clarify?

 

I'm 99% sure it is the same side(drivers side) on both 4wd boxes, as been looking at boxes a lot lately for various reasons.

Clutch arm is passenger side on a Cosworth box. No idea what side it is on a non Cosworth box.

 

Out of interest if there actually any difference apart from the mentioned arm being on opposing sides, I.E different ratios/stronger?

2.0 4x4 non cossie is on passenger side , it uses the same cable as the cossie 4x4 the 2.9 4x4 is on the drivers side, most if not all of the 2.8 4x4's are a type nine box rather than an mt75

 

as stated above clutch arm is different for the V6, i believe there is no difference in strenght on the gearboxes (cossie, 2.0 xr or 2.9xr) mt75 is a mt75 when all said and done.
but i think the ratios are different for all three box

 

Just to add some confusion, the T5 clutch arm is the same as the V6, and V4 ford engines, of english variety anyway, as just got one, complete with it's 71 part number!!
