R380 gearbox

Hi All

Been some time since I was last here! I would like to know how to strip down an R380 GB. The input and Lay shaft are completely stuffed and I would like to replace them myself. Ive managed to remove the selector assembly - but that's as far as I go. Can anyone help?

Cheers

Yes, you will need a gearbox rebuild manual which I have here as PDF, PM me your e-mail address and I will send it.

Its not a easy task, and you will need to get some special tools.

Having read the manual I would not bother and get it done by a place like Ashcrofts. The manual is interesting.....

its not so much doing the job at home on the bench, its more a probelm of getting the parts cheaply.
gearbox parts can be very expensive.
the rebuilders get a huge discount.
its usually best/more cost effective, to let them rebuild you box.

Well, last nite I stripped two GB's down to the guts, I wasn't able to pull the collars off the output shaft - too damn tight, so I'll have to take them in somewhere for that to be done. After that I'll swap the stuffed Spigot and Lay shaft with the reasonable one and hope for the best.

Hi,Do you still have the gearbox rebuild manual for disco td5. I need to strip
my gearbox, a copy of this would help. Thanks.

Yeah should do, I delete nothing! Which also then causes issues finding things!

Will have a look.
