F60L resto NSW Australia

[David Nicholson]

Well its been a while since I've posted anything....

So Robert Pearce offered me a replacement Ford TX case! 10.5 hours drive each way and boy did Rob deliver! I brought back two cases, one almost complete, the other just the case...

So off to the acid wash, and meanwhile assemble the best box I can....

Hear are some photo's

So such a big thanks to Rob.......As so many parts he gave me were either parts I did not have ie indent balls and springs, speedo drive housing etc, or the parts were in much better condition such as the PTO dog, Hi/Low selector gear etc

To the experts out there I have one question...

My original TX case had ball bearings for the input shaft(seen in the photos), and so my parts book says! However, both TX case's given to me have tapered roller bearings on the input shaft, this is also shown in a purchased operational manual for shim adjustment procedures!

Shaft sizes are identical for the bearing mounts, can I just put tapered roller bearings in instead of the original roller bearings?
