Default Gears are available.....

Hi Anthony

Gear clusters are available....maybe not new but in good shape. I have opened more than one tranny over the years and although the box was half filled with water and bearings might have been pitted the gears were always good. Seals and bearings should be available from industrial dealers like General Bearing Services by size...OD and ID. A complete tranny from a junk yard may be much cheaper than a single gear retail....just remove the cover and spin the gear around for inspection. Easy to mail but expensive by weight. Sometimes the gears can be chipped or worn from lack of synchros but if not too bad can be dressed up with a grinding wheel. I have some available if you get desperate but postage from Ottawa, when they work, would be high.

Yours are beyond recovery and will no doubt chip and cause further damage to other gears.

Good luck and keep us posted by photos of your progress.

Just buy the individual gears NOS off of ebay. The MB-C2 manual gives a great run down on how to replace the gears. its very easy to do.

Default There are two different 3rd gears

Hi

In your search for a replacement gear check the number of teeth, if memory serves there are two different 3rd gears with different diameters and different numbers of teeth so you need the one you have to match the upper gear cluster.

Cheers Phil

Default Found a rebuilt trans

Phoned up Asperline Transmission in Winnipeg and he had one sitting on the shelf .
Was rebuilt and left there 20 yrs ago.
Felt pretty lucky to get one that easily.
I gladly paid him 500.00

Default Good find

Hi

When I found a NOS transmission few years ago, it still needed to be taken apart and cleaned. Hope you can also find the parts to repair the other transmission, always good to have a spare, to use or as trading material for some other major part.

Cheers Phil

Default New rebuilt?????

Don't forget to use Zinc additive to the oil.....

Or HD diesel engine oil....

run at a fast 1000 rpm idle for at least 30 minutes to let things fit together.

Good luck

PS what plugs are you running???
