Bedford gearbox.

Hi Jim,

I hope these prices for the type nine gearbox parts will give some idea of just how much damage there is inside that gearbox, which was defiantly not in good shape when you bought it.
Having been able to find you a clutch plate and a gear-stick retaining nut it does look like the best way to getting you back onto the road.

Gearbox.

HI Jim,

Having seen the damage to the fourth gear and therefore the input shaft it is no wonder to me that the needle roller bearing in the crank-shaft is shattered, there is no lubrication to that small needle roller and the amount of movement in the input shaft once the front main-shaft bearing broke up would destroy it.

Parts.

Hi Jim,

Sorry I have been a bit busy getting the drugs changed and ordered up for the wife they are trying so new one's, I have a clutch plate and gearstick nut all boxed up ready to send to you.
That speedo cable might be the answer to my problem I will check what the parcel post costs are and get it posted down to you so that you can get wired into it when you come back.
