i should have bought a quaife box in the first place
one of my "NEW" boxes lasted a total of 23 miles before it went tits up and that was in fifth going along the motorway and not even giving it mucho beans
mind you, the original box i lost 4th gear in
then the next box i scrapped at one of the revs days at brunters
but i've never had 3rd gear go (but i had put cogs out the side casing of the box before and fook me thats something you never want to do 
)
i did get a guy to build me a box when me and mob did our 5th gear top end mod and that was fine no matter how hard i ragged it
pity the engine made like a chocolate firegaurd and melted 3 weeks later
is there any way that the T5 can be made to get 4wd then?
When my box went the first time it was 3rd gear. It distroyed the whole gearbox as the debris floated round in the moving parts!
Then got another box built by Bernie and how it survived 2 years of my constant abuse before 3rd went
AGAIN i will never know
Think it all depends on your driving style. I really have no recpect for my transmission and it done well while it lasted
Might be worth a E-Mail/Phone call
