sweet. i was looking at your thread before yanoo. its my gear linkage, i just dont know much about mechanics so get my mate to do my repairs!

Could a worn selector be resonsible for a slight oil leak? or is this a ballache oil seal - gearbox out job?

No, a worn selector cannot be. Slight oil leak is a common problem with JB/JC gearboxes. Caused by wrong selector shaft seal. There are more ways to change this seal. It may be a gearbox out job but it may be simpler but not simple.

The bush (with bolt) is £5.50 + £4 p&p.
