squirrelbot Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 Hello, I am restoring a Wheelbarrow Robot. I think its a mk7. I am missing one gearbox to get it moving (in a straight line ;)) I wonder if anyone can help identify and find the inline gearbox connected to the motor. Is there a parts catalogue for these vehicles? Or a place where they sell spares? Thank you for any help on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul connor Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 (edited) I would suggest a freedom of information request to the MOD. They would have both parts lists and manuals. https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/ Edited June 9 by paul connor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny M Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 Johnson's of Leeds has/had some bits when I was up there last year, not sure about gearboxes specifically but I picked up a Wheelbarrow grabber, and tracks and a box for my Cyclops MRCV. If you're local I'd say to go up for a look yourself as they've got all sorts of bits tucked away in cage pallets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
