Mini pickup gearbox 1128 ?

Post by jbz23 »

Hi all

Am I correct in thinking the gearbox for my 69/70 pickup should be a 1128 remote box with an adapter plate to use magic wand ? ? If so does anyone have a adapter kicking about ?

Cheers Jabez

You need the adaptor plate, smoking pipe-type selector shaft and the locating pin for the gear stick. The gear stick is not the standard magic wand one. The ball groove is 90 degrees diffferent. On the top face instead of th side.
Somerfords website shows the parts breakdown.

Adapter plate on Ebay but not cheap.

I managed to buy all 3 components from Tim at Minimail a few months ago. Might be worth calling him. I paid a lot less than that ebay listing.
