Picked up a 2821E gearbox on Craigslist for $30 - the Cortina/Seven type with the external remote. When I stripped it I found that the main input bearing had failed and one of the 3rd/4th gear baulk rings and a blocker bar were damaged.
The layshaft - which looked brand new - shows some light blueing in the area of the needle rollers, surface is perfect, no scoring or damage. The rollers had some light blueing too. Question for the group - would you re-use or could this have compromised the heat treatment of the layshaft and rollers?
So I’m searching for some replacement parts - any clues where they might be found?
