As we break into the new era of 1UR and 3UR engines, we have begun development on 6 speed manual swap options. We've developed an adapter plate specific for the UR automatic bellhousings to convert to a manual transmission, in this case the popular Tremec T56 Magnum! This specific plate works on all UR engines, however you will need the matching bellhousing that has the 12 or 14 bolt bellhousing-to-trans-case pattern. The only 1UR bellhousing this does not bolt to is the Land Cruiser/LX460 200 series 1UR-FE with the same 14 bolt pattern as the 3UR engines.
This billet aluminum adapter plate reuses your automatic UR bellhousing. Not all UR engines had a replaceable bellhousing, so you may need to source one from a GX460 or other Toyota/Lexus URs for instance.
Our flywheel for T56 transmission applications uses the same one as our UR-to-Nissan 6 speed (commonly referred to as the CD009). You will need our in house flywheel, which bolts to your factory flex plate. We are able to keep costs down of this custom billet part by reusing the factory flexplate for a ring gear, instead of supplying an aftermarket one that does not work any better than the factory parts do. T56 transmission not included.
Please note the 1UR-FSE and 1UR-FE 4.6 engines uses a different flywheel than the 3UR-FE and 3UR-FBE 5.7 truck engine. You will reuse your factory flex plate for the ring gear and factory starter engagement.
The T56 style throw out bearing is also used with these kits. These are relatively inexpensive, which helps keep swap-cost down. We also offer a Quarter Master TOB as an option for a higher quality long term investment.
Twin disc/multi plate clutches will require the use of the QM TOB, it is not optional on the 7.25" and 8.5" twin disc clutches we offer. The QM TOB also requires a Tilton quill tube (input shaft sleeve), which is included as well as the bleed line that is needed if the QM TOB option is selected.
