3 synchro 1st/2nd gear hubs

Post by mjollnirsen »

Hi,reading 36 inter's post on 26/06/17 regarding confusion over the components making up these assemblies,I find my
self in a similar situation.Have purchased 3 N.O.S 22A1071 assemblies all feature 22A1781 hubs , 2 with part nos 22g439(one stamped the other etched) on the sliding gear and one with 22G92 stamped on it.Sorting through all my used gearbox parts I have found a few hubs marked 22G250 ,one with what appears to have a "B" TYPE 1st gear fitted.I think this was in an early Cooper 998 gearbox with "A" TYPE 2nd/3rd/4th gears.My question is should I use the 22A1781 hub in the 22G333 casing? The cooper 998 probably had a 22G68 casing but unsure about mainshaft details when using "A"TYPE gears. Thankyou

Or what about getting the parts list out first and positively identifying the part numbers you have against the parts list. This will take all the guess-work and '.....I think.....' out of the querie. Once you have that, you will then positively identify the mainshaft and the answer to the main querie.

22G359 is a "B" type 3-synchro hub. This was one of many versions (no 4 of 5?) of the "B" hub that BMC produced
