Graham and Bob,

Thanks for the info. Yes, I would be grateful for your sources. I'm mainly
interested in a straight swap without the need to alter the housing or get a
new one.

I did find that the Morris Register will source a new CWP for the
unbelievable price of 22 Pounds, but alas they are for a Morris 10, which I
believe will work in a TC.

Cheers,
Lew Palmer

Any CWP,from: Morris Eight Series 1; 2; BUT they may be 6 bolt fixing rather than 8 bolt fixing. Hence you need to get the Morris diff unit as well. The Wolseley Hornet of 1934 used the same gears but 8 bolt fixing; as did theWolseley Nine of 1934/5. Also the Wolseley New Hornet of 1936 used these gears in 8 bolt fixing. Mostly these were in the 7/37 or 8/41 ratio. Wolseley Hornet Specials of 1934 used the same style CWP, but 8/39 form. I have come across 8/41 ratios, from Morris Eight vans I think.
New CWP's are currently available from at least 2 sources in original ratios

or 9/41 or 9/39.I can dig out the contact numbers if required.
