It looks like part of the bolt that stops the shifter flopping around... :? Maybe..
Could be a roller out of a bearing but I don't think Zook boxes use needle roller bearings.

I wouldn't call a chipped gear like yours "normal".
A replacement shouldn't cost too much.
If you are re-using all your other gears, why not get a used input shaft from the wreckers or a gearbox rebuild specialist?

the part you see broken there is not a critical part , and its an odd part to break ... also there is no load on that part.

that is 4th gear , and the tooth that is broken is one of the teeth that hold the selector hub to the gear , 1 damaged tooth will not make it a problem

It was due to a bearing floating around the box.I think :?: :?:

My thoughts also, I wouldn't hesitate to put that back in if it was mine, if it was on the drive side of the gear and the gear surface was marked it would be different.

Just got it crack tested :cry: its :bad-words:, so my question is, are the ones from the states same. As i thought the sj413s, are the same world wide.
