BMW Getrag 235/5 Close Ratio "Dog Leg" 5 Speed Transmission

Recommended Posts

A freshly rebuilt BMW 235 Getrag Close Ratio "Dog Leg" 5 Speed Transmission.  This transmission was factory installed in a 71 BMW 2002 I acquired.  It had a bad output shaft, (worn splines), so I acquired a NOS output shaft from Uraguay and took the whole kit to Bavarian Rennsport in Ramona, CA.  Bill Holmes disassembled everything, replaced everything that was showing any wear, (shift rack mounts, shift knuckles, pivot bushings, pins, etc.), cleaned and polished all bearing surfaces and installed the new main shaft.  Synchros and bearings looked great and everything was reassembled and sealed with new seals and gaskets.  Now you can find these rare transmissions for around $2K in unknown condition, or you can buy mine with the knowledge that it was rebuilt correctly with all new OEM parts.

 

This sale includes everything you need to install it in your BMW 2002 (228mm flywheel), you will need to trade-in the throwout bearing for cars equipped with a 215mm flywheel.  It includes the shortened shift platform and shortened driveshaft with a new installed center bearing.  It also includes a new slave cylinder.  I am willing to ship, but I work full time, so it won't be expedited, or you can come pick it up. Feel free to e-mail or PM me with any questions.

 

Now on ebay, no reserve...

Seems like a fair deal assuming the unit has had a full rebuild (given what I paid Metric Mechanic to completely refurbish my original 4-speed).

So were the bearing and synchros replaced?

 

They were not, they were in great shape with no wear.  All the bearing surfaces were polished, but we elected not to replace any synchros or bearings because it wasn't required.  Trust me, if Bill Holmes thought there was a chance of an issue, he would of insisted that we replace them.  He is a bit anal in that regard.

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
