Default Gearbox Autopsy

Some members may remember when I first got my Rover 75 I had issues with excessive movement in the driveshaft, and today I decided to remove the clutch housing (for use on a low mileage box with a damaged clutch housing) and poke around inside

Getting the housing off was not an easy job, and I would certainly say its easier to just swap the box, but not impossible to repair

You can see the state of the poor roller bearings





I found it kept me interested this afternoon anyhow
