Hey everyone, first post here, so I hope I'm doing this right

Anyway, I have a 1998 V70 AWD 5MT (one of the rare North America ones).

Everything is working fine on it and I'm currently working my way through a Stage Zero.

I've been having some difficulty finding info on mine since it seems to be a bit of a unicorn. I'm sure the European members might have an answer so that's why I decided to post.

What I wanted to ask is: is the bevel gear from a manual transmission car the same as that of an automatic?

My main reason for asking is in the event of a failure/problem, I wanted to know how readily available these parts are to get (I'm in Toronto if that means anything).

I'd hate to have to ship over a heavy block of metal overseas, hahaha.

Thanks
