Default Focus rs mk1 gearbox

Hi all,

Does anyone know the part number on a standard focus RS mk1 gearbox?
Going to look at one next week and wanna make sure I'm not buying a standard mtx75 box!

Cheers
Danny

Easy way to tell if it has a quaife diff is the shaft inputs should have spiral grooves, if not, then no atb diff so walk away.

No pictures are needed really. If you look down the driveshaft input you'll be able to see the grooves gently scroll round the internal circumference.

Are these above-mentioned grooves?
Thus the pictured gearbox is a Focus RS one?
Thanks!
