Adrian Barrell Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 The pinion is matched to the crown wheel and they are (were) supplied as a pair. NOS gearboxes do not have a pinion with them so keep it safe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were supplied as a matched pair though I do not think it is a big problem if you fit another one from a different gearbox. It is just that a NOS gearbox does not come with a pinion (the small gear). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supertrack Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Ok i understand , and understand why . Normally, these parts must be properly adjusted . That why the small pinion is not with the gear . You have to take the old one or change all parts in the power train ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
