Adrian Barrell Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Yes, Sherman. Possibly new as the pinion did not come with the gearbox, it being matched to the diff crownwheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Herbert Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Unfortunately someone has had the oil fitting off the small flange visible in the top photo. The missing part has a pipe on it that engages with a banjo shaped ring on the output shaft deep inside the box. When you remove the fitting, the ring turns on the shaft and it is a major job to get it into the right place to line up again. Without it there is no pressure lubrication to the output shaft and bad things happen. As Adrian said it is probably a new one as the pinion is not there but the pinion needs to be shimmed to the correct place on the shaft, they do not just bolt into the correct place. There is a jig and a proper procedure to follow - all in the TM ! Looks like an interesting building - Holland or Belgium I presume.
