Mk 1 Diesel Gearbox change manual to Automatic ??

Postby HoboClanger » Sun Sep 24, 2017 11:50 am

Is it possible to change a manual gearbox to automatic on a Mk 1 ford transit with a diesel 2.4 York engine. Any advice on if its possible, what else needs to be changed and cost, and anyone done it ?

auto mk1 transit had the lever selecter on the dash the best way to swap would be to find a breaker [very hard now] im sure auto bits from a mk 2 floor stick will swap/ fit again if you can find one
