Why whats the problem? Any ML box would fit. I'd have thought there are quite a few renault boxes that fit too.

I believe the V6 has its own bellhousing.

indeed, lots of them about though, and I'd imagine the internals from another ML could be swapped.

quite strong boxes all told, some 5th gear issues on some IIRC but that may have been the older ME gearbox.


whysat?

406 pedal box wont fit directly, its a right old bodge making it fit.

I have heard of a hydraulic clutch master being fitted to the 306 pedal, possibly a late berlingo/partner, unfortunately the pedal box is a different shape, the earlier vans ere the same bulkhead but never used a hydraulic clutch.


you don't want to use any other gearbox on this engine.

I'd just get hold of the original master cylinder and offer it up, save yourself a lot of work trying to figure out what size and stroke MC to use.
