Driving down to springwood ( 20 km away ) got off the highway and came to a set of lights. start to take off and this god auwful noise, so i quickly grabed 2 gear @$^@& still there. Sounds like i have spat some teeth off of the cluster.
I finnal got it home ( in 4thgear all the way ) and pulled up in the driveway to open the Garage door and the blody thing jammed into 2 gears. So now it is stuck in the middle of my driveway.

I need to get this thing back on the road ASAP as its my only transport so if you have a spare gearbox just lying arround give me a yell.

I would go for a NP435. Identical boltup as the BW T18 but slightly lower first gear/ I think its 6.6something:1 as opposed to 6.3something or something like that.

Waht sort of box does it have ATM.

Ah - read the title .. T5.

Will the t18 bolt straight up??

Is that the same style as a F truck cause I know of a few that are around.
