Hi Folks

The bearings in my Saf's manual gearbox have been noisy for a while now so it is time to replace them, hopefully when I pull it down there will be no shaft ware.

Does anybody know a good supplier to get a bearing kit or individual bearings from, alternatively a cheap place that rebuilds gearboxes?

The other option is cheap second hand one but I don't necessarily want to buy someone else's problems unless mine is absolutely stuffed.

I've had good dealings with both these places.
Never rebuilt a safari trans tho, so havn't had to ask re supply of bearing kits for them.
Whats your location? Makes for suggesting companys to rebuild easier

I'm in Auckland

try pioneer auto parts (penrose?). i see they stock gearbox parts.

Try The Gearbox Factory they have a couple branches in Auckland. One in Henderson and one out east somewhere. Great to deal with, their labour is $80 an hour (Well it was when they just did my clutch) just supply the parts and oil yourself.

Had mine into gearbox shop for a check when redoing clutch thrust washers had taken a beating in my gearbox
