Is anyone out there able & willing to help me rebuild a bog standard gearbox?

I am willing to had over some of my hard earn cash and travel within reason.

Following my last attempt at building a box not going too well, I would appreciate it if this time round someone who has done a few of these could give me a hand.

Rob,

I am highly skilled and competent at making cups of tea.

Turbo Hogster or IckleMini.

Take your pick. You'll not go wrong with either.

On a regular basis but normally at 6 in the morning on my way to Crawley. That said it's only an hours from Bristol so I don't mind making a special trip.
