Hi Steve, yes that is another way, but the hardest part of that, is finding a ball bearing with a diameter of 44mm. Even if you found one bigger it would be so hard to reduce the dia, but thanks for your comments.

Nearly finished the gear change mech. I would have to say, if you never had access to an original mech, it would be really difficult to make a replica from pictures.

mortar carrier gear change
For those of you who know what the original gear change mech looks like which is the previous pics I put on, this is the modified mech I have made up to accomodate the C4 transmission. A very simple system of rods and pins. It does change very easy and positive.
Just fuel, electrical and cosmetics left. Colin.

Shifter
Very nice work Colin. I don't want to sound picky but don't forget about the movement in the engine mounts. Wouldn't want you to floor it and have it shift gears on you. Or break the shifter at the tranny.
