3 way engine and gearbox swap

19 July 2017 - 08:38 PM

I currently have a 2001 Outback, with a 3.0 auto in it, and a trashed body.
I just bought a 2001 Outback that has a 2.5 litre, with a blown head gasket.
I'm assuming that swapping the 3.0 litre including trans, into the 2.5, will be relatively straight forward. 😬

However, and this is where it gets exxy, I also have a 2.5 2009 Liberty sedan, with a noisy gearbox. Is there any chance the gear box out of the 2001 2.5 Outback, would fit the Liberty?

My main reason for going back to the older Outback is that the Liberty, whilst great to drive, just isn't coping with the dirt roads, and it needs to go.

Thanks.
