    Gearbox Overhaul Suppliers

    Hey all,
    I am restoring a 74 S3 88 and whilst he gearbox is functional, clunky and "loose", it works OK.
    Whilst I have the engine and GB out I'd like to take the opportunity to have it stripped down and any worn parts/seals dealt with, but I am struggling to find a local mob to do the work.
    They all are reluctant for various reasons.

    If I have to I can ship it somewhere for this work, but ideally I'd like someone within driving reach of the ACT.

    Any guidance or thoughts?

    JB

    The Series Workshop spring to mind.
    Their website says they do gearboxes.
    I don't know anything about them, but they seem to get a good rap on here.
    https://www.seriesworkshop.com.au/

    A bit further away is Clarke Automotive in Wodonga.
    I'm sure Ivan would be up to series gearbox rebuild.

    Glen at Ausrover in Bathurst might be a worthwhile option to check out. He did a great job rebuilding the engine on my truck when I got stuck there with a cracked head.
