Hello All Series III people,

I was having a surf on the net and found this English description of how bloke by the name of Chris Jones went about removing - rebuilding and installing a gearbox for his Series III. It has some step by step instructions - handy hints and part numbers included. There is also a link to upgrading the gear ratios using an Ashcroft High Ratio Transfer system - not sure of their availability in Australia?

It is worth a read anyway and the geabox rebuild description could be of help to someone. There is also a link about how to remove the gearboxes single-handedly. I hope I have not jinxed anyone by putting this thread up.
