Re: Shugmobile upgrade - Now with gearbox strip photos.
Might take a look mate - if it's a PG1. Metro GTi had a 16V 1.4 K series, or was it an 8V?

Just heard back from original seller too - no hassles, will be getting sorted out. Should all work out fine - he's even going to fire across the right output shaft with the 4.2 final drive... Hopefully coming together now.

A spool? I always thought that diffs were for woofters...

Re: Shugmobile upgrade - Now with gearbox strip photos.
Just started reading this thread. If I read it sooner I could have saved you a bunch of bother as I have a 4.2 final drive kit in the garage, I think, somewhere
. Give me a shout if you need it and I will dig it out. Also have 2 gearboxes if any one else is interested in doing this.

Re: Shugmobile upgrade - Now with gearbox strip photos.
I've got a spare standard gearbox in the garage doing nothing..... do you have the bits required to convert it to a CR one then?? If so, I could be interested....Mikie711 wrote:Just started reading this thread.
