[QUOTE="Matty, post: 28884, member: 1339"] Thanks "vibrac" In danger of repeating myself !!! I think we now have solutions to fix the gearboxes, but "clevtrev" says by email, that he checked the drive end selector bush in the casing before he sent it to me and it is still unworn. So wear on the bush would not seem to be the reason why Vic Youle's damaged bits seem OK in the "new" casing. So why "tatty500's" measurements are different from mine is still a bit of a mystery - he seems to have better facilities than I have (also I am an electronic/electrical Engineer and I suspect he is a Mechanical one) and I trust his figures. I do not believe he is mistaken in his diagnosis which is consistent with the way the failure happened, but I do not believe it would have happened with the measurements I have taken with largely the same parts in the "new" casing. Hopefully all will become clear when I strip and rebuild my box - and in any case I think we now have a set of solutions which will cover most problems. Thanks to All for your help Matty [/QUOTE]
