Hi Alllllllll
As it says in the title my gearbox is FUBAR and I have got to replace it in the next 8 days as Mrs Krisis is of on her jollies with a work mate

Which 4 or 5 speed boxes will fit without major alteration.

It is currently a DY 4 speed box on a JK 1600 diesel, the JK will be changed at sometime in the future to a 1900cc n/a or if pennies allow a TDI.

Now then remember I have just gone back to work having had 7 months off recovering from an operation so money is tighter than usual.

for the 1.6D choice of...

4speed

DY, DS, DM, ACR, ACP, 6D,

5 speed

8K, 8L, 9D.

more details here

easiest is whatever you already have, if four go for a four speed, if five go for a five speed is easiest.
Cheapest and easiest usually is 1.9 petrol four speed ABD, most common probably, it will be fine for now and a little better with a 1.9, swap bellhousing and input shaft, and oil jobs a good un : )
hopefully

Ok I have sourced the box its another DY 4 speed

Collect it tomorrow from Leeds, then at some point over this weekend will try and get it fitted

Mrs Krisis is away with a work mate when they break up from school, no they work there, well turn up there anyway
So no pressure REALLY
Besides getting someone else to do it is there another easier way of doing it ???????
