Call Ren-tech , ask them how much it'll be ?
It'll save a hell of a lot of time .
You could have it all back up and running by the weekend. .
Also you need to get the sealer that goes between the casings ?
Again ask Ren-tech what they use
Pretty much DannyR
Idiotic behaviour that only lasts the duration of the doing . Short lived , imbecile comes to mind . Lock him up I say .
Could have been a major accident
The seal is inside the tube and the bearing is all one piece .
See the white bit in the inside of the tube ?
When you get yours DO NOT REMOVE THIS .
what you need to do is press this out with a press machine .
Remember to take note of the drop of the bearing height in the casing .
See...
Before you press the input shaft bearing out - be sure to measure the drop from the casing to the back of it as this is important , because there is an oil feed hole in the casing that'll need to be lined up perfectly when pressing it back in . The oil feeds the bearing naturally . Any off...
That's correct up to this part .
Now you got to remove the 1/2 -3/4 gear set along with the selector forks all as a unit .
The forks are roller pin secured to each rod .
These need removing so the rods can be twisted within the forks and lifted up one at at to be removed and layed to one...
The reason both shafts turn still is because your missing the selecting ring bit that goes over the 5th gear in your pic .
From the bottom it gear , synchro ring , hub . You sliding hub ring locks 5th gear in when push down , like the rod would do .
All is not lost . If you cannot get the rod back in , just rebuild the 5th gear so it looks like this again without the fork .
Then select reverse gear FIRST which is the lever away from the casing at the bottom and towards the rear of the box starter motor side . Then manually select 5th...
Look at these two photos very carefully ,
The rod in the second pic is the one you have pulled out to far .
You can see it has a
Fork bit at the bottom of pic 2 ok.
That rod is 5th gear selector rod .
Can you see it slots in to the hole at the bottom of the gear set in pic one above .
You...
Only thing your need to do is select reverse gear first with the lever outside of the box and then push 5th gear down so two gears select at the same time and locks the box .
Once the bolts are loosened . Un select both gears b4 you proceed any further
Here are 5th gear off the shafts . Do not separate them try to keep them all together .
Under the gear on the left is a gold synchro ring and spring
Mark the inner hub and outer sliding ring with tipEx / paint so if it falls apart you can place is back in the exact previous sliding...
See that plastic bit at 12 o'clock in the pic . DO NOT BREAK THAT . That is 5th gear oil feed and if broken will need to be replaced or 5th gear will seize up and box with stop .
See the shaft at 5-6 o'clock that's 5th gear shaft , after selecting reverse , just pop 5th downwards and hey presto...
See that little half moon metal bit , behind that is the ball and spring that holds reverse up. If you look at it you should see a spring poking it's head out up against it .
Don't touch this until you have removed the 5th gear and idler drive gear which under the end cover .
Did I reply to you on the FB site ?
JB3 box is a doddle to strip .
It's just getting the 5th gear off without breaking it or even chipping the teeth . .
Once 5th gear is off - your pretty much there .
Only thing your need to do it select reverse gear first with the lever outside of the...
Evaporator is clean ?
You can see the inside of the box the evaporator sits in ?
If you can then you'll see the mould and gunk causing your issues ?
Research Air con bomb . Fantastic bits of kit . Best thing ever for smells and bacteria removal.
I noticed the scoop looked nice and neat ,
Where is this one on the drivers side window chip - not seen that before. ?
I've just looked that bit closer . Lol
Subscribed : Another one to add to the collection Chip , how many is that now ? Will you be at the Ace Cafe Monday - need a chat with you about something I recently bought :p
If you decide to rid of the roof scoop I'd be interested as I have poly windows going in at some point and I don't want...
