Funny u should say that about geartorque.....the 'uprated' box i bought off em a year ago shat its load on the wkend! Only runnin 170bhp and wasn't really givin it any stick at the time! I had terrible service off em n all, they tried palming me off with a non rsturbo box at first!

Ive heard a lot of people having trouble with Geartorque boxes

Never heard a bad thing about C.T.S though

S2Dan

Yeah C.T.S are well good.

Stage 2 box i think comes c/w an ATB, not a bad price either

jezRS

What are the ib5 bearings used? - diff bearings?

JesseT

The rollerbearing next to the crownwheel pinion at the end of the centermost shaft(layshaft or mainshaft or whatever). I've carried out this mod to a few boxes that have hold up fine so far. The bearing is around 30e from Ford.

Tony why dont u rate em? Might be diff if u had 300lb of torque?
