627 forum posts 72 photos | I phoned RDG and the lady who answered said that they were not Myford I needed the Myford site,but she asked what I needed and when I gave her the code numbers she looked them up and found that there was one availiable and out of stock with the other.She sold me the gear and they must have access to each others products.Whilst I am on does anyone know how the pinion arbours are attached to the reverse lever as they don't have any means of undoing them from the front unless one grips the front and unscrews them.I don't want to create another disaster.

![]() 2929 forum posts 41 photos | Tufnol gears, when I was in Kenya I had an Opel Kapitan, It had Tufnol timing gears, Which failed and the replacement was an Aluminium gear, an easy repair as I undid one engine mount and jacked the enginge up and removed the radiator and was able to access the timing gear through the space opened up. There is a longer story about this but having showed the Opel agent how I did it was given a nice cash sum as it saved many hours work lifting an engine out. |
