Did a quick search, just wanted to know whether this is everything i need to change my gearbox.

This FAQ does not explicitly say what its for, It will be the first time ive done this so just wanted to know if this guide is all i need to do a full gearbox change, or alternatively if you can point me in the direction of a good link.

Any tips/advise welcome. Thanks

Yep, that's the FAQ you need you need to remove/refit the gearbox. It also shows you how to do the clutch while you're there. Thumbs up

My tip/advice: Get a mate over to help you, it will make life much easier for you. Yes

That looks like my idea of hell, My experience of following wellys FAQ's makes me think there a lot of s**t that can go down.
My favourite is the bit in the top engine mount one where he says
"Be Careful here!!"

Around about that line I spend about 1 hour wanting to shoot myself.

It is pretty straightforward as long as you are methodical in your work and meticulous in your preparation. Smile

This is essential. Yes

Having a look over the job a couple of weeks before you actually do it and making sure you have ALL the tools you will need available and the appropriate torque settings to hand etc will save you so much time when it comes to actually doing the job. Smile

This made me chuckle, I've got this vision now of some dude standing over a 306, top engine mount in one hand and a Magnum 44 in the other...LOL
