Speedo angle drive


Recommended Posts

Carl,

 

If your TR5 had overdrive fitted by the factory and if you still have the original fibreboard gearbox tunnel cover it has a cover plate fitted, see illustration below, so you should only need to remove the H frame and transmission cover carpet.

 

cheers

If it has a replacement plastic cover then it just has that area moulded in. Best to cut it out after removing and make up a steel cover as you will probably be re-visiting it sometime as the replacement angle drives arent known for their longevity. Hot knife is best for cutting.

Spot on Stuart, a very smart plastic one, a careful bit of drilling around the moulding and voila! The angle drive has vibrated off the gearbox, clearly not tightened properly in the past. I believe there should be a copper washer, but clearly that must be on a road somewhere, anyone know the size of washer I need outer and inner measurements.

 

Cheers Carl
