Gearbox substitution

Post by SUE482 »

I would like to replace my old gearbox in 1955 saloon for a later ribbed one which I have. I want to keep the pudding stirrer as I don't want to change the interior of the car. I have seen the procedure on here somewhere but now I cant find it, point me in the right direction please. :o

Hi Declan, yes that was one of the ones I was looking for, however, there was another one which suggested that a plate was required between the 1098 gearbox and the old tail shaft if you want to retain the pudding stirrer. I'll keep looking. :o

Ian,
I have another article but it is in German with photos and it does show the plate you are mentioning.
I also have some photos of the procedure as done by a mate of mine.

No probs Declan, my sister has lived in Kandersteg for years so my Swiss/German should get me through. :roll:
