Rebuilt Metro Turbo Challenge Straight Cut Gearbox in Wiggi Modified Casing + Windage Tray
Turbo Mini Forums

Due to the sad realisation that I will never build (or more accurately "finish") a mini awesome enough to need this gearbox!

Jack Knight Metro Turbo Challenge Straight Cut Close Ratio Gearset with the following ratio's 1st-2.31 2nd-1.57 3rd-1.19 4th-1.00.

Freshly rebuilt with all new bearings, a brand new 2nd gear and central oil pickup into lightened DAM5626 casing (Casing worked by Paul Wiginton and was used on his sprint for a number of years). The casing is roughly 1kg lighter than standard and the diff housing has been machined to fit an LSD and has had the selector rod steady lug machined off the diff housing so really only suitable for cars with semi-solid mounted engine or internal gear linkage setup.

Long serving members will know how rare these gearsets are and that they are well proven and strong.

It also comes fitted with a Paul Wiginton full windage tray. I will also include a new laygear bearing which I bought as a spare due to them becoming NLA.

No diff or final drive included with the sale but I am happy to supply and fit at your cost.

In my opinion a bargain @ £600 (The casing & windage tray were £100 between them)

this would complement my JK drops, dont have the money right now.

If this is still available in 3 weeks i may be tempted.

intrested in any tools? lol

No don't need tools. In fact I'll withdraw the PX offer as cash would be more useful.

how much do you get for a kidney these days..................

ok mate.

Don't do it Rob! Almost died trying to do a sale. Bloke tried to haggle, two for the price of one!

Lol!

Still here.

Price is ono, this box would go especially well with an ATB in it from the group buy

There is actually a brand new ATB & 3.2 in there at the minute but I want to keep them or would need them replaced.

Could be persuaded to make a deal on a px with a good helical box for rebuild.
