What's the last year the tranny had a trap door?

2002 IIRC. The XB's never had it.

Maaaann...I miss that door.My XB don't have one.I used to love pulling my transmission for inspection.

And replacing broken clutch gears and third gear on the counter shaft.

If my X1 ever has transmission problems i can remove it lickety-split.

They never should've done away with it.But that's progress

Agree!
If I'm not mistaken that's also the reason we can't use the Baker Six Speed

There are some XB's out there with trap doors but I think most of them are in the paddock. Sure would be nice to get a set.

XBRR
From what I've heard not having a trap door is why baker never did it...

I was really hoping the xbrr trap door would have trickled down..

Cool I learned something new today.. never knew that the XBs don't have the trap door.

So how do you pull the tranny out?

I don't have an XB YET, but gotta learn this stuff for my future Uly : )
