boldy205 75 Posted January 31, 2007 (edited) i have heard sometimes opening a box can be a bit of a tin of worms , as when your in there it can look like other bits are worn so its worth replacing them while your there, im no mechanic but i would just try sticking a differant/known to be good box on. by the way, whats a BE4 box?

brianthemagical 1 Posted January 31, 2007 thanks for that, replacing the box will be part of my rebuild. when the end cover is removed (i have done it before) there is a pair of meshing cogs that look the same size (maybe 5th) and i seem to belive that it has been mentioned somewhere that they are easy to access. i think the whine is the bearing on the syncroed gear (because i'm clever, like) and i just wanted to replace it untill the rebuild. by the way, whats a BE4 box? it's like a be3, or be1, or be5. it's a newer version of the be box, my logic dictates that it will be better and be easyer to find a lower milage one. i was wondering if it would fit, it looks similer but better to make sure. thanks.
