I am in the process of rebuilding a buggy and have an 1800 box but i am putting a 2L engine in. So what i need to do is get the Bell housing changed so i can use the larger flywheel. So my Q is does anyone know where i can get this done in Brisbane?

Why cant you do it yourself? its only a matter of unbolting the old bellhousing and bolting on a new one. And changing the input shaft is just as easy

I dont have any of the parts to do the conversion and would prefer to get this done by someone who knows what they are doing and i have no idea about the transmission.

Well there are a few Transmission repairers in Bris.

German Autos
Mick Motors
Leons Motors
Mac Tune

laurie svenson of German autos is very good. he is located at
Unit 1 20 Fortune St Geebung QLD 4034
ph: (07) 3865 5457

I don't know if Mac Tune is still operating as Barry is now working for 4*4 australia at Brendale and his dad was looking after the shop but he to may of given it away

hope that helps

I second Laurence at German Autos (haven't used the others though so cannot comment on them). He is a bit of grumpy fella, but certainly knows what he is doing.
