To the best of my knowledge, the gear sets aren't "matched" mainshaft to countershaft except to get the correct gear for the year and type. The tolerances in the TR box aren't nearly that precise. I

I agree 100% with not ordering any parts until you physically inspect your own gearbox. My experience has been that only the latest TR6's can be assured of having been produced with the steel bush b

It's true. In a nutshell, the tranny mounts were changed to accommodate the J-type o/d for the 73 model cars and later. HOWEVER, any late car without o/d can use an early frame by changing to the ea

I second all of Mark's info except for one detail. I prefer to use a 12 volt test light instead of a multimeter on almost all automotive DC systems . The reason is that a weak ground may test OK on

Perfectly correct, Bob. I also use contact cement instead of the 3M spray for this work. Actually it's a cement for attaching the old 'landau roofs'. I find it holds the best in heat and cold of ever

You can use the TR4 fingerpull. You must enlarge the hole in the glovebox door. It is the only reliable way to get the damn thing open on a lot of cars. (Yes, I've had some work just fine, but other

Ben, it seems like everything is OK. The O/D shares gear oil with the gearbox. I'm not quite sure how you are shifting, but you don't have to baby these O/D's. I always shift O/D while on the gas, so

Your guess is correct. The late US car gets the offset hole, and cars thru 74 get the centered hole. You need to get the correct late style on both sides for it to work out. Good luck, Jim the rear
