Some kind person recently posted a link to Overdrive Repair Services in the UK.

According to the info ORS just sent me, they can convert your non-OD mainshaft
to an OD mainshaft for 65 UKP. The adapter plate is 35 UKP outright. (You'll
still need the electrical components like isolator switches, relay, operating
switch, etc., which they also sell)
They also sell the entire A-type setup _including_ the mainshaft, and adapter
plate (not sure about the solenoid and other electrical components) for 500 UKP
outright. Even with shipping, that may turn out to be cheaper than the VB
deal. (J-type is 450 UKP)
Note that the mainshaft changed along with the internal gear set at TR6 tranny
CD20282. You'll want to be sure which one you need before ordering. I'm told
the later gearsets will fit the early boxes (and maybe vice versa), so the box
number may not reflect what's inside.
