DI tranny pan on a DII

[Mud&Rox]

ok this may be a stupid question but...the DII doesnt have a tranny dipstick.....the DI does...I have a extra tranny pan off a DI with the tube....will it fit a DII? from just looking the pan seems to be the same and there seems to be enough clearence along the firewall but will the dipstick of a DI read right? thanx all....Cheers!

I have read here that it is possible.
I was thinking of doing the same as you.

Try it out and let us know.

Yes it will work. I confirmed this with Dave Ashcroft too.

To confirm that the dipstick is reading correctly on the new setup, make sure your existing setup is filled to a known good level, then save the fluid when you swap pans, refill, and see where it ends up on the new dipstick.

This pan-swap is a good idea. I might just do it myself.

That's good to know, I might know some one with a DI pan to use too.

Next tranny service I was planning on the same replacement. Things to consider. Fill the tranny as if you still have the D2 pan on. The fill hole isn't on the pan, its on the tranny. Then see where the level is on the D1 dipstick. I'm to lazy to look at the Rave filling conditions for the D1. Maybe a D1 owner can answer this. Do you check the fluid while hot and running or cold with engine not running?

warn running in neutral

Rave states. Check fluid cold idling in park.
