gerabox rebuild parts?

Postby croagy » Thu Jan 15, 2009 1:00 am

is there manual gearbox rebuild pats ot kits available anywhere? have problems getting first and reverse only when the engines cold after few miles its fine. but it feels a bit too notchy even when warm. if you rev out 3rd and try to get 5th it does grind so think needs work somewhere

Have you changed the gearbox oil, if not suggest you give it a go.

Could be a synchromesh problem...

Coukld be a synchro as CJ said but i would try the cheaper options first.
Most likely to be the bracket holding the cables on top of the box. I have repalced several including my own. I had problems with 1st and 2nd. It sort the problem and box feels like new.

There are 2 available so you will need to supply your chassis no. easy to replace aswell.
