Hello, I need help!!
After repairing my gearbox, it turns out that there is a problem with the primary and secondary shaft.
We found the secondary shaft (FTC1074) but the reference found for the primary shaft (FTC347) does not correspond to the TVR assembly. (about 6cm too long)
Does anyone know the correct reference? and especially, where to find it...new or even used.
Possibly a complete box even...

Please help me, the car has been standing still for too long...
( I'm in France and my car is a 92 Griffith 400 wink )

Sorry I can’t give any specific advice other than search other vehicle fitments that used the same gearbox. So, triumph, Land Rover, Jaguar.

Hello

You could try www.gearboxman.co.uk. Whilst their main business is, I believe, rebuilding gearboxes (including mine) and diffs, they could probably provide some help? I found them to be extremely helpful and professional.

Thank you, I sent an email, no answer for the moment. No more success at ReadmanRacing...

Maybe I should consider switching to a T5...

I would personally but cost and availability is a factor.
There isn't much wrong with a decent LT77 but quality rebuild parts are scarce.
Gearboxman linked to above had 2 goes at rebuilding mine back last year but do seem like good guys.
