Manual gearbox compatible/swap for this vehicle?

The 1999 Holden Rodeo came with different engine and transmission options, so the compatibility of a manual gearbox will depend on the specific configuration of your vehicle. However, there are some general guidelines that can help you find compatible options.

Same Model and Year: The easiest and most straightforward option is to find a manual gearbox from a 1999 Holden Rodeo with the same engine and transmission configuration as your vehicle. This ensures the highest level of compatibility.

Same Generation: If you can't find an exact match, you can also consider manual gearboxes from other years within the same generation of the Holden Rodeo. In the case of the 1999 model, it belongs to the second generation (1997-2003) of the Holden Rodeo. Gearboxes from other years within this generation may be compatible, but you should verify the specific details and compatibility with a trusted mechanic or parts specialist.

Cross-Compatibility: In some cases, certain components may be compatible across different models or even brands. It's worth checking if the manual gearbox from other vehicles with similar specifications, such as Isuzu D-Max or Chevrolet Colorado, could be a compatible option. Again, consulting with a knowledgeable mechanic or parts specialist would be helpful in determining cross-compatibility.
