[Fot] Datsun B210 Transmission

[David Gott]

Hi Jeff,
I don’t know anything about this company, but looks like they might be able to source a cluster shaft for you; try giving them a call!  They say they have good take off parts…. And rebuild these things often.

I would give Futufab a call for a try & vector to where to go!  I met the owners some years ago on a car tour.

Hey all, I know this is not Triumph related, but I don’t know of a group of enthusiast that have more general old car knowledge, so here goes:

  

In 1998 my father installed a modified B210 5-speed transmission in his MGTD.  It certainly helped to have that extra gear for higher cruising speed (55MPH instead of 45MPH!).  25+ years and many thousands of miles it is time for a rebuild as it was getting noisy.  It’s at a local shop and upon disassembly the shop says it needs a new cluster shaft.  Terry and I have searched the internet with no luck finding one.

  

My hope is a FOTer might know someone who might be able to help us locate one.

  

Thanks for the help!

  

Regards,
