High mileage gearbox.

Hi to all,

Managed to get that gearbox I was sent striped down today and going by the amount ware is must be quite a high mileage box, so tomorrow I shall start the search through my spares collection to see if I can find the parts I need to replace all the worn sincro-mesh parts I will need to let this mans Bedford stay on the road for a few more years.

High mileage gearbox.

Hi to all,

Having checked over Dave's gearbox closely I have decided that due to the amount of ware in both sincro's and main-shaft bushes I will replace the complete main-shaft cluster as one.

Gearbox.

Hi to all,

My computer seems to have had some kind of fit but this weekend should see Dave's gearbox going back together ready for testing on the rig before being fit for service.

Gearbox.

Hi to all,

It now seems I have to find a rear main-shaft bearing for this high mileage gearbox, so getting one as close to the size as I can in metric size and then machining out the tail-shaft casing.
But the inside size has to be 25.4mm to fit the main-shaft, done this before so let's hope I can do it again!
