Om60x transmission installation
My 240d transmission slid right on as one would expect, is it because of the spline?

Why is it whenever it comes time for me to do a transmission swap its so hard to get the input shaft to seat correctly in the pilot bearing. I used the alignment tool. I've done this twice now and have had to work it in easy with the bell-housing bolts. Once with the engine out on the ground and this time in the transmission well. Oh and if your planning on doing the swap without putting the engine on a W201, it requires some massaging. haha..

I've yet install a trans with the newer style splines. I have one waiting to get put in though. I oughta try this on the floor, slipping the pilot bearing and clutch disk on and seeing how much friction there is.
Grease the splines, maybe there's too much friction there. Maybe grease the pilot bearing too.

Yeah I used grease its just a tight fit. Does anyone know if a output shaft spindle off a getrag will fit on a 714.411 and whats the size to get the damn thing off some 12 point?

Let us know if that output shaft flange interchanges between the 2 transmissions.
