Ring gear carrier bolt kit installed to replace rivets which often fail.
(This is a ring gear with the bolt kit installed.)

Below is a example of a stock ring gear with factory rivets. As you can see a few rivets removed themselves from the ring gear housing. All the tops of the rivets were sheared off. The bottom two pictures show two stock rivets nicknamed "bells" because of their shape. These bells were originally made to hold the spider gear cross-shaft in place. You can imagine what happens if one were to let go. The cross-shaft has indentations on the outside of the ring gear housing for circlips. This is part of the Bolt Kit and the circlips are installed in all our rebuilds.


This is an example of a bellhousing case that had a rivet bell blow through it.

This is the inside of the same bellhousing. As you can see the other rivet bell lodged itself into the case. ALL of our transmissions come with a Bolt Kit.

Our rebuilding process on the 02J style transmission is currently underway. We are documenting the 02J process and will have it uploaded in August 2009.


Here is an example of a 02J transmission. The intermediate housing is the same style for all 02J type transmissions but the shifter housing can be different. There are a few variations of the bellhousing depending on your engine size.
