Type 9 Gearbox Inspection
Hi everyone,
I'm getting ready to fit a new type 9 into my Mk1 Escort, but I wanted to give it an inspection before doing so. This gearbox is new to me so I don't know the origin and I don't know if the synchros are ok, etc. I have a new set of seals and gaskets, but I've never taken a gearbox apart before, although I've rebuilt plenty of engines. Does anyone have any advice? Is this a job best left to professionals?
Thanks,
Robert
PS I'm in the US in case anyone plans to recommend someone to inspect/rebuild the gearbox.

Cheers for that Matt!
Yeah, I'll crack it open to see how it looks, but I'll know for sure once I start driving around... I think I'll try to locate another one and start going through it in anticipation of my first T9 failure!
