[Healeys] Lempert 3.54 gears install

[Larry Varley]

Tom, I suggest you read the workshop manual and see what is involved. I 
had to make up tools to set the pinion preload and you will need bearing 
pullers. I would be fitting all new bearings regardless, and new oil 
seal. The Lempert gears are very well made, I have done one where even 
the original shims were correct for the new gears, and another where 
adjustments were necessary. After reading what is involved in setting 
the preload and backlash, if you feel you can manage it all, then go for 
it! Otherwise get help.
Cheers
Larry Varley
