    Fairey Overdrive

    I purchased a Series IIa cheaply for it's Fairey overdrive and a few other bits.
    Details here http://www.aulro.com/afvb/holden-pow...-gs-202-a.html

    The Transfer box output shaft has a lot of play and this has caused problems with the Fairey overdrive.
    Initially I drained a fair bit of oil from it which was positive.
    Then I found this




    Not a good start.

    I found that Rocky Mountain list the parts I need but I'd better check the rest of the overdrive before I go too much further.

    That's a pity....

    Do you have a parts drawing? - dismantling and remantling is quite straightforward.

    PM me if you want a copy of the drawing.

    They seem to come up for sale from time to time either in a vehicle or as a unit so picking up another which doesn't have that damage could be an option.

    Thanks, I've downloaded the parts manual and installation manual.
    Once I get round to investigating the rest of the overdrive I'll know whether it was a poor purchase or not.
