Hi, Yes, Add me please...
[ATTACH] Hi Greg, this is what I'm using, V8 pump with adapter and the fan/pulley from my orig. pump.
Thanks 5280A2, your photos were a great help. A very simple trans. but the changes in parts and numbers was confusing at the start. I think most...
Well , after a 10km test run, all seems well! I stripped the trans again just to recheck. I knew the syncro springs were strong but replaced...
Well, today I removed the trans. On the bench, checked the syncro hub and it slide back and forth nice and easy in all positions about 1/8'' ....
Hi 5280A2, thanks for your efforts , great photos and discription. I put my Mitchel o/d in neutral and held the clutch down while turning the...
Hi Clem, the ''small ''syncro is the early type that you see in mine. The later 1939 and on use separate baulk rings as in a modern car and the...
Hi, I agree with your comments on the later type. I will double check tomorrow but the syncro sleeve I replaced was marked/polished on the front...
We tried a different lever, two new (old) tops and swapped my origonal fork with another (small) fork , added washers to detent, no change....

Hi, mine has same box as yours but with the earlier small syncro and small fork. Will try to upload some pics later.
Hi, I mean when I push the lever back towards neutral a little (moving the detent position slightly). Unfortunatley only have a spare '35-'36...
This sounds more like you would get with completely worn out teeth, but I think its in the syncro - noise stops if I lift the gear lever a little..
Gear lever ok,
Hi, the noise previous to installing the new syncro etc. was annoying but now a lot louder. Maybe I need to stop the selector traveling past the...
Hi, I finally fitted a '39 trans in my 1930 4 banger coupe. I used a Clings adapter and all went well but had a slight buzzing noise in third...
Hi, yeah- no damage, just another day in shakey Wellington.
Hi, I fitted a V8 pump to my '30 4 banger and used a Gates 26503, 44mm and 51mm each end by 254mm long .This is a ribbed hose and fitted...
