Pref in the north west, I need it doing asap.

I have a Focus RS box, and need the crown wheel and pinion from an MTX diesel box putting in.

thats not as simple as it sounds, there is a plug on the end of the boxs that seize in, and its a full shaft swap to change ratio on a fwd box.

Minisport in Padiham helped me do my ST170 box mods - chap there called Mick is awesome with gearboxes. Might be worth a bell if you're struggling fella. They also have full machine shop facilities on site if there are any dramas!
