M42. But remember, there are 2 different sizes of the Getrag 240 input shaft. The early version has a smaller size shaft, which makes the pilot bearing inside diameter smaller. The later model is larger. Check the realOEM website for the pilot bearing part number. It will state when the size was changed.
