Fork rod, i think it's called ?
Turbo Mini Forums

ah yes i see you've got pics!



the older manuals are better IMO. just remember when puting the bearings back, tap don't hammer, and work around the bearing race don't just tap it in one place.

You beat me to it..
Just been trying to work out how to do that lol thought it be like the normal way i do it, upload, then copy the web address etc. didnt work..
Anyhow..i was going to make a new post. what sort off gearing is this ?
I was told this isn't a A+ BOX ? THEY ON ONE, or they right... what sort of box is this.. cheers :)

it took me a while to work out haow to post them too....

what you need to do is go to he album where you have uploaded the pic then clic on the pic to open it so its big, then right click and select properties, and copy the link on the properties page, paste this into the message and put [/img] at the end of the link and [img] at the start.

to me it looks like a A series box ( pre A+) the slightly flat tops to the gear teeth give it away, also the idler drop gear will have a 5/8" shaft rather than the A+ 3/4" shaft.

dont panic though, nothing wrong with the A gearbox, in fact some reckon its better.

I may be mistaken but looking at the picture above I would call it an A+ gearset...

LOL,

I jus had a look at a couple of boxes in the garage, I have an A+ box that looks just like the above one,

I'm sure I remember the tops of the gears being much more pointy on the A+ gears, Guess I must be getting old!!

So if that comfirmed then,
I have A+ Box then ?

A+ box...

new case

welding may or may not last, but would you risk it?

PS: saves trying to get the selector shaft out, that would have been a bugger

It's only cracked abit where the shaft goes into... it can still work, surley they wouldnt be alot of pressure on there ?
new case it alot of dosh ?

you *sure* its a crack and not a casting flash mark?

A+ have a notch in the middle of every tooth

Here is a pic http://www.turbominis.co.uk/_photos/random...os/678/3961.jpg
as i was placing the new rod in, thats when i noticed it. the crack goes in about 5mm. can i get it welded, or will it be ok ?
cheers

As that shaft does not slide in the casing I wouln't be worried about welding that. A good aluminium weld is just as good as the rest of out shite casings.

Just to confirm, that is definately an A+ gearset.
