Andrew, Lynx 1 Mk's 1,11,111, and 111* all have 6 stud bolt set up not 8. The wheels are like those on the Chev HUP's. The tyre size is also unusual at 9.25" x 16. I am running 9.00X16 tyres as the others are not available.

A bit of a difference in rolling circumference, but that shouldn't cause me too many problems.

I was luck to get my original gearbox. You will have a few blokes looking out for your new cast housings as I have had many enquiries re the gearbox availability.

Cheers Rick.
