[WPTA] MGB OD Trans for sale

[JIM UNDERWOOD]

This brought back memories.  I got the LH OD for my MG at Carlisle for $225.   Of course that was 30+ years ago !  Pulled it apart and put in new bearings and a shift fork.  I did find one bad synchronizer which is probably why the guy said he didn't know anything about it.  One good thing is the actual transmission itself is the same as a non-syncro with the exception of the mainshaft.   So if anything is messed up in there, the regular 4 speeds are dime a dozen. I would go through it before going to the trouble of installation but that's me.
