Gearbox removal rear main replacement

When the gearbox is ready to go back in, make sure the engine is level with the gearbox and it should slide back in, it took me a lot of wiggling and pushing and it slid back in. From here secure the gearbox with the bolts and build the lot back up.

With everything back, the gear selector plate will need setting up so that it will select the gears easily, if it doesn't then just lever the gear selector plate about until all the gears are there.

A good thread! you will be getting a job with Mills and boon next, novel writing!
good work!

I fitted some captive screw fixings to the gearbox surround as a temporary measure, just in case anything needs to be set up again or removed. If everything is ok, then I may rivet it back on.

Right, that's it I think.

Hope it helps anyone who's thinking about doing the job themselves.

Thank you for all your comments along the way to help.

Sorry about the photos, and thank you for the messages trying to help with them.
I couldn't get them to be made smaller and reduce enough.
I've basically done all this thread on the iPhone as I haven't got a computer to save them and make them smaller.
