Looking for translated C-160 Manual; Damaged crown and pinion

Hello. I tried to do a search on this subject, but it looks like the search is turned off. I also looked at the pinned thread at the top and saw this link to a Levin book:

http://www.japaneseautospares.co.uk/owners...oyota.htm#levin

Do you think that book would have information about the C-160 transmission.

I am in the US and have a 20v Blacktop with a C-160 from Japan transplanted into the back of my 1986 MR2. Over a year ago the transmission started making a grinding noise and I think some thing is wrong with the diff (it is not LSD). I would need to take the transmission apart to repair and I want to make sure that I get everything back the way it should go, hence why I need the book.

My intro post is here: http://z15.invisionfree.com/AE111_Forum/in...p?showtopic=796


Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

havent seen one online, all c series gearboxs are alot the same, you can use a c52 diff if thats the problem, but Id say your issue might be the crown an pinion stripping itself... was it under load at the time?

mmm the weak crown an pinion strikes again....
to replace the parts it costs alot, you could use an aftermarket crown an pinion thats been made for a 2zz, or find a c56 5speed, gutted no lsd :lol:
