I'm sure the st200 box has different ratio's m8, thats the only difference
my st200 is also my tow car and is getting a new clutch next week as the original is now struggling to clear the gears!

Yup, it's different. It will fit, but it has different ratios as Steve said.
You can swap the planet gears out of any other MTX75 gearbox though, as that's what will have gone.
If it's any consolation, I'm in exactly the same boat, and will be getting my box out next week if I can spare the time away from work!

Matt,
Give the boys at Central Axle Services a ring and tell them that Jeff from Geartech suggested you give them a call. Tell them you just want the diff and bearings doing in the box and they should be able to sort you out. They are in Brum as well so you wont have to travel too far.
Agreed that the diffs are the weak point in the box hence the reason why I have a pair of spares boxes sat at my old mans place with Quaiffes in waiting until mine need either a clutch or box doing.

went to Shefield today to collect an ST200 gear box, cant believe how thin on the ground these boxes are also most parts now
any one know how many ST200's were made?
any way got it back to the lock and realised it matched another box Ive had sat about for 2 years
Brand New Highdrolic MTX75, was a prototype box for a racing company, cant remember whitch one
pics
going to have the one I picked up stripped and checked and maybe use the brand new casing i have

what he said
I aint got a clue pmsl when I dropped off the box Shaun the engineer askewd where I got it ans as I couldnt remember he was a amazed because he said its full of Ferarri Gears / Cogs whatever lol
So at a guess I'd say it'll last longer than a standard ST200 box

update on info gained lol
the Pro-Drive R&D one is most likely an early Touring Car one befor sequential (sp) was placed into the car back when Nigel Mansell drove the ST200 Touring Saloon
Pro-Drive aparently built all the Ford Touring Cars in that series.
Info gained from MarcoPolo also employees of R&D Cages.

well Bara went to rebuild the R&D Box and says theres a gear missing from the diff?
says cant be fixed replaced duno why tbh
also the box I collected from Shefield is fooked, the diff fell apart when he stripped it
thought it was all to good to be true
so still need a diff
