Hi all,
Has anyone had any experience with the Brazilian made OEM gears?
The part number is 113 311 275 2
Looks to be from a VW Brasilia..
Im looking at a coarse tooth splines 3rd to replace a fine tooth in a SSC, but having some reservations..
Are they German made gears just reboxed for the Brazilian market, or do they share similar known traits to other Brazilian made VW parts?

Re: Brazilian OEM gears
VW of Germany stopped making Type 1 gearboxes about 40 years ago. Trans parts from Brazil are all made in Brazil.
The gear you have is a 113 type gear set. It is not a drop-in swap for the 002 type gears in your single side cover trans. It takes lathe work on the gear and the 3-4 slider hub to make it work.
If you want stock 002 type coarse tooth gears, get them from a 72-75 Bus trans. Third is easy, they are all 1.26:1. 72-74 fourth gears are all 0.82, and with the 3.88 R&P in your SSC trans, it's too tall. Best is to get the 4th gear from a 75 only. It is 0.89:1.

Re: Brazilian OEM gears
Interesting stuff. Always learning new things - Thanks for sharing Bruce!
So would i then be correct in saying not all late 9 tooth splined main shafts have 002 style gears?
Would you have a 3rd or .89 4th gear set you would want to sell?
Thanks again!

Re: Brazilian OEM gears
9 tooth splined mainshafts use 002 type gears only.
I don't build bus 'boxes, so I don't have any of those gears.
I suppose you could try Rancho for the gears.
Edit: third gear to go with the .82 fourth may be 1.22:1. You may have to get both the 3rd and 4th from the same 75 trans.
