Me a pugmanxud have decided to go scrap diving. The car we were gonna strip clean has sadley been crushed
will 406 hdi box work if its off a dw10 engine. Im worries about mounting points to be fair. Need a load of bits so gonna be down scrappy a lot soon. So if it doesnt fit or thete is doubt I wont bother.
Also on a sorta similar note I want to swap to the old push type clutch as well. Whats needed for this??

Good o! From a bit of googling it would appear the 406 110BHP has the MLT5 gearbox with hydro clutch and DMF and the 90 brake has the MLT4 box with NON DMF and manual clutch. It is deffo the 90 brake car at the scrappers by the tax bracket on the disc.

If the box does fit, and is a normal push type clutch, you need to change the clutch arm and add a bracket to the 'box to make it pull type for an XUD.
I thought all 406s were hydraulic clutch though. But if the 90 isn't, its easy enough to tell, 90bhp models don't have an intercooler, 110bhp models do.

Oh I see, my bad.
You need a push type cable and clutch kit obviously. The pedal is the same so that's fine. I'm pretty sure the flywheel is also the same size.

Fair play. Ill pull a flywheel off when I remove the box anyway. Hate push type clutchs worse invention ever.

push may be easier but pull type will hold more power, how often do you plan on having the box of for it to be an issue?
new clutch when your changing boxes should last a long time!

Its easy to convert to pull type. Id just rather have a box that was easier to pull on and off engine easy. Im never gonna run big power as its family car. Plus I have to put the box on myself which makes life just a little harder with pull type
