Hey guys, I never thought I wouldn't be able to find the part I'm after in our import flooded land but it seems what I'm after was domestically available across the ditch!

I'm after a 5 speed manual gearbox (R5M31) from a late 90s/early 2000's shape Triton 2WD with 6G72 3.0L V6 engine. I had a quick look on Ebay.com.au but couldn't find anything, so thought I'ld put the word out in case one of you lot comes across one in your travels.

Failing that, could anyone recommend any decent commercial spares dismantler to get in contact with?

Thanks guys!

Thanks for that, they got back to me with one in stock for a super low low price of $1800.

If I could get a box cheap enough I would be able to factor in a bit of a freight cost.

So does 900 bucks work for you? Sounds like it prolly works for them.

Magnawreck weren't the guys who wanted $1800, that was Mitsubie. Magnawreck have plenty of MK Triton V6 5 speeds, just none of them are 2WD :(

Just grab the transfer case, diff and driveshafts and you'll be in 4wd heaven (once you sort out how to make it all fit). Handling might be slightly altered though...
