This is the only part that has me confused. So the auto tranny that came behind the 2.6 has a removable bell housing? And then that bell housing will bolt up to the tranny you just bought? I am used to 1st gen Amigos, so the 2.6 + auto is a rare find (never seen one and don't know anyone who has one), and the 5-speeds are all integrated bell.



Hi Sean, I think I just covered these in my previous response. But yes, the A340H auto does have a removable bell. I'm not sure what the auto was in the 1st gen Amigo. I suspect it was an A340 though, but it was 2wd only. The Trooper, to my knowledge, was the only 2.6 Isuzu with a 4wd auto behind it, and that was the A340H. If the 2wd Amigo did use the A340 though, that would be another source for just the bellhousing to look for.

As for finding one, dunno. I've had a hard time finding a flexplate & torque converter for one used. St Charles has the flexplate for $85 new and I think I'm gonna end up doing that. And Jerry has loaned me his 2.6 bell housing. Car-parts.com is the best bet. Search for the tranny, then call around seeing if they'll sell just the bell and TC. They usually won't split them up though unless they've been sitting on a bunch of them for a while.
