If you can fibreglass together some form of reliable 2cv gearbox with a low ratio as per a Navarra/Land Rover in it, I will buy it.

Quote: but I'd love to see if a mehari box could take it Believe me it can't take it....... Driving my Mehari 4x4 gearbox is like walking on eggs. 3 problems 1- lubrication is not good (always put 2 littres oil extra in the gearbox )... 2- bearings of the reduction gears are crap. (putting in new ones every other year, by every oil changing look for little pieces of bearings (needles 5x2mm) 3- gearing is so low that the total gearbox is twisting under torq But crawling at about 3 mile/hour at 3500rpm is sooo cool......................... and shifting thru 7 gears working to top speed also............. |
