johny Posted September 16, 2022 Report Share Posted September 16, 2022 Yes should be MkIV Spitfire. Are you going to do anything on it or just stick it in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josef Posted September 16, 2022 Report Share Posted September 16, 2022 By the number yes that should be an identical gear set to what you already have (Spit IV as Johny says) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichTeaBiscuit Posted September 16, 2022 Report Share Posted September 16, 2022 Sorry to hijack the thread! My gearbox is the original so I'd rather keep it than exchange - is rebuilding a fairly straight forward, if time consuming job? I have seen some excellent videos online.

I think you're better making your own thread and listing what gearbox you have and what issues you're having. If you're up for the challenge, it's definitely doable and relatively simple once you get your head round it. 56 minutes ago, foshi said: going to just put it in not a massive job see what i have, if issues will just fit my good herald box and done with it paul Should just drop in, hope the new box is a good 'un!
