[Healeys] BJ8 Gearbox Removal

[Tom Felts]

I've done it three times.  Other than the grunt work, not much to it--proper shoring up on the bottom while sliding it rearward and a helper up top.

I am about to do something that in 42 years of Austin-Healey ownership I
have managed to avoid.

 

That's the removal of a BJ8 gearbox.

 

I have removed many a BN1 box and have lost count of the number of times I
have removed and refitted the gearbox (100S + OD) in the BN3 and have even
removed a gearbox in a real Healey, but never one from a BJ8.

 

Please tell me that apart from the console and other modern (?) stuff there
isn't much of a difference?
