Hi Morris, thank you, but i have two gearboxes awaiting a professional inspection before i fit the best of, as for the propshaft JubileeNut, nothing has been moved along the prop line in at least 30.000 miles, and there's no vibration through the gearstick, This is also something that appears to of ...

Ok, so, to add insult to injury, i not only have the noisiest gearbox in town, still to be looked at, but now the poor van has developed a horrible vibration at around 50 to 60 mph. not felt at the steering wheel, so suspect the rear end somewhere, what does anybody think?

hanks Chris, had a look, and there's the remains of one in there! i emphasis remains.. i am a little hesitant to try and remove it should it break. Does it just go into the block as a blank or does it open up onto the water chamber?
cheers

Yes Chris, temperature of water i think is the one! kinda missing it now i have a leaky, and soon to be replaced, rad! i will look at the cylinder head attachment and see what's needed, is there a specific or universal size? (haven't looked yet!)
cheers

Hi Chris. my mechanic, who did the gearbox oil a few months ago, and is the owner of the hydraulic ramp, and the only way i could get to look at the gearbox! Says he checked the oil for level, and was up to level , with the same clean oil he put in a few months ago. also reconing that it was the sae...

VAN temp gauge, which mine duesnt have one! Would a cheaper EBay gauge and sender do the trick and where does the sender go?!

Late update! Dave Dave and Chris, advice followed through, gearbox has clean , and correct oil, up to the level , already in the gearbox, so feel that sadly it a worn box. Will carry on ascit is , until it gets worse or unworkable. I have two spare boxes, which Dave b. dropped off some years ago, wh...

thank you Dave, Dave and Chris, My thoughts exactly, drain check and refill. There's not a lot else i can do anyways! More than that is dramatic, time consuming and costly. I will be gitting it up on the ramps in the next week or so, when i have time, and will report back to y'all. The manual says a...

Hi everyone, my gearbox is getting steadily noisier. especially in third, and nearly as bad in second. there's no extra noise in fourth, hardly any in first, or any other gear when NOT accelerating (as if accelerating is a thing in a Marina :clap: ). The history is i have done around 10,000 miles si...

Are all front doors the same between the mks? such as thedoors , with a quarterlight, and the doors withsingle piece of glass. will all fit one?

thank you everyone, all is very much appreciated. I think the most likely candidate is the TWR GS6067, which, as it's actually available, i think might be my best shot. with the suspect rear brakes possibly coming up in the next MOT, in May, we shall see if it's correct. Yes, i know mine van will be...

now i'm really confused!

Thanks Chris,?
is that part number the BL part number? or the brake shoe manufacturers number? Like GBS740? (which seems to be the most common MGB number)
cheers

Latest is that all those i approach, from the MGB angle, cannot confirm they are the same, as all listings i have found say just MGB. Do any of you have any confirmation that they are the same?

thank you all, that's helpful, will try MGB ones and see what happens
