        Gentle Scions

        The Green Man is about to go back on the road. After sitting idle 
        through the winter with a bad cam. I had everthing buttoned up...
        `had actually started the car when the bendix on the starter 
        puked and threw a bunch of bits back behind the clutch assembly...

        I have to pull the tranny to make sure I ave removed all the dead 
        bendix parts... This was something I had hoped to put off til winter 
        when I have enough cash acrued to rebuild the gearbox (sigh).

        At any rate I'll have the gearbox pulled, and since it's off, I was 
        wondering if it's possible to change the front gearbox seal without 
        removing everything? 

        Any of you triumphisti been down this road? I seem to remember 
        that is IS possible...

        If it's not I'll just do a quick recce and button the sucker back 
        up...

        Of course, thanks in advance
