Excellent "How too" here http://www.theminiforum.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=9808&hl=gearbox With the authors permission I have produced this in a pdf file of nearly 5 Mb It was hosted on a site but the site was hacked and the area where it is located is yet to be fixed. Anyony wanting the pdf file I can send it via email. I recently used this article to rebuild my first gear box and it all came together perfectly.

Mehinger, Thanks a million. I'll be in touch in the next week, as soon as I get my act together and figure out what I'll be doing for sure. Dean Thanks to the Interstate Highway System, it is now possible to travel from coast to coast without seeing anything. Charles Kuralt Autox/Rallyx Videos

Interesting topic, but I've got to pass on this one ... overbooked on that day already. Thanks for hosting an useful and educational event, though. Good luck with it. SE7EN

I have plenty of room for visitors. I am about 30 minutes from Hotel (California that is). I'll gladly put up anyone that needs a room. And dean2, my cousin lives in Rochester - races a Porsche.

I think I'll be able to make this! Would anyone in the area be willing to offer up a patch of floor or a backyard for pitching a tent on Friday night and possibly Saturday, depending on what time we finish up? I'll be going to Knoxville from Rochester, NY, so I'll probably be arriving pretty late on Friday night.

my just-arrived June 2008 issue of Mini Magazine has the first part of a multi-part series on rebuilding a rod-change gearbox. Part 1 covered disassembly and Part 2 will cover reassembly. Since there are many many similarites and shared parts between the rod-change and remote boxes, these articles should be useful to everyone. Lots of useful photos. As mentioned previsously, the 1380 engine build DVD by Bill Sollis also contains very useful sections on gearbox disassembly and rebuilding. This site: http://www.minifilms.co.uk/a-seriesbuilder.html presents the DVD and has a sample of the DVD (although it downloaded very notchily in my case).

If anyone who plans to attend the Tranny school is coming from around I-81 in the Bristol Va./Tn area and wants to ride down to Knoxville with me let me know. (or coming west from I-26 thru Johnson City)

It would be good if we had yours here already down and once we take Wades apart we could put yours together. Pigs have now flown. Miniguy is still selling cars.
