Hi Richard
I'm not sure if you mentioned it in your last 80+ pages, I'm only up to page 35 atm, but when you changed your gear box, which one did you put in and did you find any problems with it?

Cheers

Hi Duncan
I am not too sure of the model number. But I believe it to be a G52 . It is the heavy box fro a surf and has never given any troubles.

did it just bolt up? or did you have to change the crossmember?

It just bolted up. Because I run an after market heavy clutch I had to grind some of the strengthening rib off the inside of the bell housing to stop it hitting.

First time I have broken a tail light since I built protection about 15 years ago.

It happened at the bottom of Trev's hill when I didn't make it and it ran back onto a piece of wood. So I have had a good run

So my Xmas damage bill is starting to add up. Broken windscreen, Bent rear axle and a tail light plus disc brake pads from the bent axle.
