DCCD centre for Gen4 Outback dual range

Post by Barry1956 » Wed Feb 02, 2011 9:50 pm

At some point I'm going to pull down my transmission to fit scorpion low range gears.
Does anyone know if the WRX DCCD would fit in the case as well, and if so, how difficult it would be to wire up?

DCCD + low range = good climbing in the High Country of Vic! :twisted:

It's 2 wires to the controller. But I reccomend
getting an aftermarket item as they are
infinately easier and more advanced that the
factory one.

I've got a DCCDpro for mine. Canadian made.
5 wires. I'll never look back.

And yes, it will fix any 5 speed :)

I don't really know anything about dual range gearboxes but I would imagine that the dual range part of it is in the rear housing of the gearbox which is where the dccd goes ??
So what I am saying is can you have both ?

The dual range is in the front of the box so seperate to the rear housing. You will need the complete rear housing off a DCCD box and I am not sure if this is a direct bolt on to the newer boxes. It will fit Gen 1 Liberty dual range as that is what I have in my H6. Makes a great box for both on and off road

You don't need the dccd housing at all. The dccd centre will go into a non-dccd housing - it just needs a hole drilled in the top of the housing to allow the controller wires to feed through. There is one other thing you have to modify internally but I'm not sure what it is but it is not hard (this is from what the builder of my dccd into a non-dccd box said).

They will fit all 5 speed EJ boxes.

What was that worth? Did you have to import direct, or do they have a local supplier?

So have you fitted DCCD to the later rear housing which does not have the removeable plate on the top like the early ones? I was under the impression, but could be wrong, that these newer style rear housings won't work with the earlier DCCD's due to different internal design.

I couldn't find mention of an Australian supplier, but then I didn't look particularly hard...

You don't really need one these days - either have them send it direct to you and if they don't do this set up an account with a pack and send "virtual mailbox" company - Venom has details about this as he's got one sorted for when he purchased all the gear for his H6 that was needed ;)
