I need a new gear box for my 59. I nearly snagged a 1972 midget rib case
via eBay but missed it by a couple of dollars which might have not been a
bad thing. . . unknown condition although stated to have come off a car
with 38k on the odometer with seller admitting that this may not actually be
the case. . and moved well through all gears. . but no tolerances checked
by the seller.
What is involved in rebuilding a rib case? If I had the money at this point
I would go to a Datsun set up. . but instead I need a decent rib case. (My
rib case grinds in first to second and second to third). Assuming it is the
balk rings, what do I know at this point?
I am mechanically confident enough to know that I can screw up a gear box
rebuild. . . ahh, think I can pull it off if I have the correct
instructions.
Anyhow. . can someone tell me about how much are the parts to do a rebuild
on a rib case and where are they sourced? And or who on the list does
rebuilds like this and of course I need to get an idea of the cost?
Any help is always most appreciated. .
Thanks,
Kirk
