Hi Folks,

I have a D type O/D and gearbox that I would like to install in my '70 Mk3
Spit without O/D.  The gearbox was reported to have been sticking in 2nd
gear before I bought it.  I noticed that it had some pretty heavy oil in the
box.  I use Redline MTL in my current box which made it shift a lot
smoother.  What things should I look for in the box before I try to install
it?  I don't have the rear mounting for the O/D & box, where can I find one
or can I fabricate one?  Any other helpful hints?

Thanks,
