They are quite a lump, very heavy gearbox! Think they are slightly heavier with a Quaiffe ATB which mine has too. I think i remember someone saying they were 15kg more than an F20? Not sure how true that is tho.

Looking good.
I take it you've already converted the box to 2wd etc, before painting?
Yeah it's all ready to go, I bought the gearbox last year, rebuilt, converted and diffed :)Quote:

Ordered some new bits from Autovaux which arrived at the weekend. The backing plates for the rear disc beam that i got from Opel Classics in germany came without the blanking plate/rubber for the mechanism to slide on.
Took 5 weeks to source them as they are NLS, but managed to get some. Thanks again to Autovaux!

I've also now built the rear flanges back up ready to bolt on to the axel once my plated bolts arrive back.
