[Gearbox Identification, Herald/Dolomite type]

Thank you for all the responses. Was hoping for an easy way to identify expected contents of the boxes but will need to do some counting and measuring. All the markings look original so a collection of production line 'freedom of choice' stamps. Thanks again.

I have gearboxes with the following prefixes: DC, LG, CB, WE which don't match any of the listings I can find. What models are they from?Whitley (on hill above coastal village).pdf

Thanks, will see if the tape is available here.

[swing spring, front/back, lubrication]

Thanks for the replies, had the spring apart before I noticed any mention of front and back so answers are a great relief. Found Penrite make a graphite grease but no need now - Thanks.

[swing spring, front/back, lubrication]

Just replacing the rear spring on a Spitfire MKIV. Original has a marking  FRONT on one leg  of one spring clip, the replacement has no markings at all. The workshop manual suggests there is a front and back to the spring but I'm at a loss to see any difference.Help please. The workshop manual also suggests the application of graphite grease - any suggestions as to brands of grease suitable for the job.
