Slightly off topic, but a lot of you seem to make all manner of things. I am going to convert a discovery gearbox to fit my defender, due to decent defender gearboxes costing tonnes. I have bagged a low milage discovery for a bargain price, therefore need to convert it. This is done by making an adaptor to extend the selector shaft to accept the defender shifter remote.

I could knock something like that up. What material were you thinking of? https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fusion-Fabri..._homepage_panel

It would probably need to start out as a piece of 35 or 40mm mild steel bar, so nothing to exiting! On 7th Oct, 2010 5haneJ said:

Should be doable. How desprate are you for it? I need to sort my tailstock out first. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fusion-Fabri..._homepage_panel

I think MRA have copyright on that, so be careful!!! Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

the design shows a distinct lack of imagination, talk about starting off with a clean sheet of paper, then not bothering to fucking draw on it,lol On 20th Apr, 2012 Paul S said:
I'm mainly concerned about swirl in the runners caused by the tangential entry. |

When i saw your diagram first thing that came to mind was a toilet roll holder - this just me or anyone else? On 10th Mar, 2012 theoneeyedlizard said:

I'll let you know matty, I'm gonna see if my machinist will let me occupy a lathe for a while as it would be good to be able to offer it up to the box to get the size bang on. I decided a camshaft will make a nice donar for a lump of metal, just turn a little off one of the journals and de-lobe it a bit, it'll even sit nicely in the lathe using the camshaft drive.

You are aware that cam shafts are hardened and a bugger to machine? Isambard Kingdom Brunel said:

Just let me know, if you don't have any luck. I found some mild steel today that will do the job nicely https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fusion-Fabri..._homepage_panel
