I'd like to hear real life experiences with 915 transaxle. Anybody?
-Do you have rebuilt or non rebuilt unknown condition transaxle?
-How is it working? What oil are you using?
-Did you use bug at 5 speed conversion parts or not?
Also why did you decided to put 915 transaxle? How much power planning to put through it?
Please, no opinions that bus 4-speed or T1 berg-5 would do the job
I have heard that
swepco 201 or Kendall SAE 80w-90 is good oil for 915 transaxle. I have in mind the early 915 which has 7:31 R&P, these have nice shorter overall ratios than late ones. Ofcourse any old 915 needs basic checking and some rebuild, also shifter and joints needs be good to shift as well as they can.
Just that i dont have any experience with 915, and all the horrorstories give me an idea that it shifts like a truck transmission at worst
It's the only thing that worries me.
Still thinking also the berg bus 5-speed.
