Massey 3070 gearbox swap

[Hardyspicer]

Hello I've got a 3070 with a irreparable 32 speed gearbox, I was wondering if the 16 speed box from any of the 4 cylinder 3000 range would be a straightforward swap, I've got a new flywheel and clutch in it at the minute and hopefully the clutch will be compatible with a 16 speed. Thank you

Sure they will fit. I would think even the 6 cylinder ones will be ok if the front adapter plate is removed

yes they will swop but you need the speedshift unit because the forward reverse gears have different amount of teeth and a bit of plumbing you dont need the oil feed to the side plate
your biggest problem will be finding a 16 speed box

Thanks everyone, @masseybreaker is the speedshift unit the clutch less gear change and like multipower or dual power on ford's?

 

[masseybreaker]

yes you only need the gears out of the back of it but buy it all if you can

Sorry for the questions @masseybreaker the speedshift unit is what's wrong with it, my fitter and I can't get new bits and I can't find a new bearing or get anyone to machine it, so do need a good speedshift unit yo put a 16 speed into it. Cheers
