mortar carrier gear change
For those of you who know what the original gear change mech looks like which is the previous pics I put on, this is the modified mech I have made up to accomodate the C4 transmission. A very simple system of rods and pins. It does change very easy and positive.
Just fuel, electrical and cosmetics left. Colin.

Shifter
Very nice work Colin. I don't want to sound picky but don't forget about the movement in the engine mounts. Wouldn't want you to floor it and have it shift gears on you. Or break the shifter at the tranny.

Hi Ledsel, point taken. I'm hoping that I've got enought pin length to allow for 3 to 4mm lateral movement either way. I have also allowed 20mm under the mech for a rubber block to the floor. I need this for shimming to get the correct alighnment. If there is still a problem I guess I could always mount it direct to the transmission. The way I designed what I have, seemed to be the easiest way for a positive connection. I am still open to any help or suggestions. Thats why we put pics on MLU, to get help from experienced people all over the world.
Thanks Ledsel Colin.

Hello all, I made a new fuel tank and mounted it in the side mortar storage area. It made it very easy to mount and it will be easy to fuel up as well. The originals were under the floor but to my knowledge there is no record exactly where and what shape they were. I mounted the remote oil filter for ease of removal. Onto the exhaust system next.
Colin.
