Thanks Nathan. I downloaded it, I'll need that soon enough. I should buy one that's already blown and fix it so I'll have one ready when mine finally gives up.
Here's a few photos regarding the C clamps and my straight cut gear set. This is what happens with low oil. The 3 types of Mini synchro rings. Peugeot uses the one piece non fiber ring For sure the torx bolts will round off so I weld a nut on. When rebuilding a Midlands it is always wise to buy the 4 C clamp bolts and at lease 1 or 2 bearing plate bolts. When the C clamp wear the 5th gear inner hub gets worn away The forks wear away too! Here's a worn and broken C clamp. New clamps from Eminiparts.com I collect the Midlands boxes mainly for spares. The Peugeot gear set has a C clip instead of a nut Straight cut set with Gripper LSD. I went for the straight cut synchro set instead of the dog box because my Mini is a daily driver. When the gears or crown wheel let go the casing is always busted. My swap from a normal gear set to straight cut. I went for a straight cut crown wheel and pinion too! This is what happens when you don't change the oil on a regular basis! Sludge in the oil ways....not good. Peugeot rings.
