I hope some of you will be able to help me!
Long story short, the reason I stuck the car in the garage and mothballed it for a while was my gearbox was a bit ropey and I was scared that it might go bang and leave me with even more of a problem.
Today I fired it up and went for a blast down the road

I have just been reading Gary71’s 915 rebuild thread which makes me think it won’t be too hard to do as long as I can source the required parts.
The box is a 4 speed 911/00 from a 1970 model, ‘69 registered T. The fault I have is basically very sloppy gear change between all gears especially between neutral to 1st and 1st 2nd. Reverse is also very graunchy and makes a rough worn bearing noise while moving backwards. I have replaced the shifter and rod bushings but this made little improvement.
Basically I’m after any advice and information I can get. Who would people recommend in the south (Im in Reading) to rebuild 911 boxes and does anyone have any idea how much a pro would charge?
I would also like any recommendations on parts suppliers for gearbox parts? Would I have to use pelican and ship the bits over? And finally does anybody have any other technical documentation/guides that might help me if I decide to have a crack at it myself?
I appreciate any help you can give me…
Thanks, Craig.
