2L bellhousing with 1800 clutch and flywheel?

Hi guys,
As the title says, i need to know if a 1800 clutch and flywheel will work with a 2L bellhousing and starter motor?
Thanks heaps,
Alex.

nope i dont think so

I say yes, the 1800 will work if the 2 litre starter is used with the 2 litre bell housing.

Two replys with two different answers haha.
I'll let you guys know whos right tomorow when I refit the engine. If it doesn't fit i have a 1800 bellhousing here I can use, just don't really feel like swapping them over.

Yep, no one else game enough......😂😂😂

i`m with Matty , but only because i already know the 2l housing will work with the 2l starter on any of the irs kombi boxes

the trick is to use the right quill-shaft

It all went together fine, which suprised me with the mix match of parts i have going on. 1600 box with a bellhousing from a 5speed 80s box, 2L starter motor, 1800 input shaft, 1800 flywheel and clutch and a 2L engine 🤪

Sounds like my gearbox in the Baja...... 1600 crownwheel & pinion in a 2L case, syncro locking diff, 1800 Bellhousing ........ I love how VW made all the bits inter-changeable...... 😀

I was under the impression that 2L starter, bellhousing, flywheel, clutch was a set.

We have 1800 starter, bellhousing, flywheel, clutch. On a 2L box. The 1800 clutch is 215mm yeah?

It's only the clutch diameter that changed, so the deeper bell housing was used to get clearance for the starter.

So is this the box with the loc rite diff Alex ??

Nope, no lock right. I missed out on it.

u can buy mine :-)

Tell me more about this locker, would love one for my van!

i bought mine from a guy up north somewhere, he was meant o send me the porsche type axle flanges with it (but didn`t) i fitted it & ran it for about 3 months, but it made a crunching noise, so i ripped it out, parked it in the corner of the shed & bought a Pelquin slippery diff from Mr Rod Penrose

i havn`t yet opened the Lockrite up to see what`s happened with it, but i was told they have a lifetime warantee but not sure how that works

i expect it may have just shred a side gear dog teeth (my guess) so i don`t see it costing much to fix, if the so-called lifetime warantee doesn`t happen

But still , it`s just sitting here, minding it`s own business, i`ve no need for it, but if you want awesome grip, then these give you exactly thaT
