Garage fairies have swiped my primary gear, thrust washer and C clip.
In the event I just give up looking for it, does anything have anything suitable for a thick tail 850/22G68 box set up?
Don’t want NOS, just a good serviceable gear. I realise I’ll have to shim for clearances but I don’t even have a used washer to start with.

I have these from a 998 if they are the same as you need?

I did eventually find my missing parts, however the fit is quite slack, needs a good twelve thou taking out of the endfloat to get to three thou clearance.GraemeC wrote: ↑Sat Feb 20, 2021 5:06 pm I have these from a 998 if they are the same as you need?

Do you have a thrust washer with this one? How much posted?

Re: Primary gear, thrust and C Clip - 850cc
I think I have a couple of thrust washers - I'll have a root.
Taking up 12 thou will be difficult though I think - there's only 12 though difference between the thinnest and thickest thrusts available. I'd presume the top hat is also worn on your gear.

Re: Primary gear, thrust and C Clip - 850cc
Yes, I'd thought that too. Really don't want to have to get involved in rebushing it to be honest. This 850 is supposed to be a cobble it together and get the car running to get me on the road without the added expense of completing a box rebuild, finishing the engineering on the 1098 and the brake upgrade to discs.. Hopefully once I have a measure of the thrust I can work out if it's viable.

Re: Primary gear, thrust and C Clip - 850cc
That gear measure 2.842" end to end, which is similar to 3 other gears I have, give or take a thou or two.
I have thrusts measuring 0.112", 0.116", 0.117" and 0.120"

Calipers also missing at the moment so I can’t measure what I’ve got. Should have a mike here on Friday so I can measure properly.

Re: Primary gear, thrust and C Clip - 850cc
OK - drop me a PM once you know what you have and need. Then I can go through the primaries I have and see which looks to have the best bushes.
When we know what you need I'll work out a price.

Re: Primary gear, thrust and C Clip - 850cc
That's great, many thanks Graeme.
Do you have any idler shims too? I'd need A series sized ones, not the larger later size. That's another measurement I've got to do..
