    Hi no nothing like that, all looks good, I'm tempted to say as new, the bearings all look new as well. I wonder if a previous owner, took it apart, realised the layshaft was knackered, changed a few things ( I haven't found a gasket in it yet!) and put new bearings in and sold it on to who I got...

    Thanks again James I had a look but didn't find anything as low as that. I looked on Landover direct as someone posted above but there was no listing for series box parts. Where do you recommend to buy from please

    Unless my current box breaks soon I'm going to put this to one side for now.I'll look out for a decent layshaft and first gear and then carry on with this, I'm only doing about 1000 miles tops a year so no need to rush

    .. bought a gearbox now what?!

    Righty ho done some more dismantling, to be honest more than I was expecting... Removed the selectors, jamed it into a gear like James said, removed layshaft nut (wasn't on tight) pulled belhousing and still didn't separate, bit of a jiggle and both shaft s came out together. Oh well. Don't...
