That's right Lynn, the Loyd Carrier have used the same gearbox

Marc can you Pm / email me your address please, i have managed to get the spindle off without damaging anything. the parts i am sending are CTL2216 and drive spindle






Please bear in mind iam taking a risk posting a rare item to someone i have never met or spoken to for that matter, given recent issues surrounding a bren gun (nothing to do with us) lets show folk on MLU that people can be trusted here, and i look forward to recieving the goods back undamaged

(above a really posh way to say...i better get these bits back buddy )

cheers

Richie

PS you may find a few folk will want one of these so if your contact can make a few we could help folk further afield...i know Big Mike was after one of these not so long ago, plus those who have them but are worn / damaged

PM sent with my address.

You don't have to worry about your speedo parts. They will be in safe hands and will absolutely be returned to you in the same condition as received.
I also read the posts regarding the Bren gun sale and was quite shocked that a fellow MLU member did not take his responsibility and make good with the duped buyer.

I will take the parts to several shops and ask for a quote for a reasonable quantity of each item. So far just one other member emailed that he would like a set if the price is fair. The more I can have made and sell on right away the cheaper they will become. I'm not looking for profit and will sell the items on at cost. This will only be for the people who respond now. If I have to stock them for a couple of years the price will go up a bit. I think that is fair.

Cheers,

Hello Chaps,

Received the first quote on the speedo drive gear and adapter. This company can produce the adapter at € 80 and the driven gear at € 90 plus 19% VAT or Sales Tax. The gear will be hardened to 58-60 Rockwell.

I find this a reasonable quote. There is a lot of machining necessary to reproduce these parts. I don't expect lower quotes from the other two companies I asked.

Everybody who sent me a PM will receive an answer. Should there be more persons interested in these parts then now is the time to come forward.

Please see the attached quote, it's in Dutch. UC Speedo Drive Quote.pdf

Cheers,
