Hey all,

As most will know my GB is about to go. What would be required if i was to put in a 5sp tippy GB out of say a TJ VRX/Ralliart

Would i need the ECU aswell?
OR
Will the TH ECU adjust?

Is it a direct swap?

What other parts if any are required?

Thanks

Ash

I believe that you'll need the ECU as well..

Best of looking for a TJ Sports ECU.. 5spd Tippy Box.. and hope for the best!

Yeh Ash you might aswell go manual, ive searched & priced tippy boxes and it will cost just as much if not more than a manual GB. but if u do want to go the tippy then you will definitly need the ECU aswell!!

Good luck dude!

I am also interested as i know where a TF Sports is with a tippy in it.

Would it just be gear box, little consolde thingy jiggy, The dash cluster and ecu i need, or is there more to it

box, ecu, possibly shafts and the tippy shifter and dash cluster... i think that would be all

so if i get a tippy box along with the right ECU from the car that the box came out of i will further need shafts and inhibitor s/w?

not really fussed about the dash coz ye wont be hard to figure out wat gear ill be in.

also if i buy the box does it all normally come with the gear selector thing?
