Process for retro fitting the VSS to late model VE T56.
Remove tail housing bolts and remove casing.
The output shaft looks like this. There is already grooves on the shaft for the cir clips to locate in.
Takes some fiddling around if you dont have the proper pliers, but i managed. Reluctor wheel in place.
The boss is already in the housing and just needs to be drilled out. You should have this milled properly or if you are adventurous you can drill it out with a speed bore like i did! I dont recommend this method but it worked fine for me.
I highly recommend purchasing a new output seal at the same time as getting the reluctor wheel, clips and speed sensor. It is not possible to clean the metal filings out of the housing properly without removing the seal.
Something to also note about this gearbox is that it doesnt have a slip yoke on it like the T56. This means the tail shaft needs to have a slip joint in it to stop vibration. Makes for an expensive tail shaft!
