  Liquid yellow R27
It crunches in 3rd so synchro has gone I want to buy used box what do I go for and what's the model numbers do I go for revised 197 or a 200 box ? I don't want to have this prob again really I just wanna know what's the right and best box to get if I'm going to replace it ?

For what you'd pay for a used box I'm with Nobby above with getting yours rebuilt and re-shimmed because they are fairly common and imo not fit for purpose. Just make sure you get an actual warranty and use a decent gearbox oil such as TransELF 'NFJ'

I've not done any digging but I'd guess the CS post was made as soon as they got the batch. I bet they don't fly off the shelf either so they prob thought "stick em on eBay" at lost a bit of profit in the process.

I'd still like to know where a batch like this came from though because they don't look like factory "new" units to me on this screen... that may just be the photos and light conditions though I'm not slandering.
