sourcing 1st gear syncro type 1 box

Hi,
can anyone point me in the right direction where I can source 1st gear syncros for a 60-66 type 1 trans.

thanks

dangerous dave on here or your local gearbox reconditioner 🙂

They are tricky things to do yourself with backlash settings and such like 😉

I have acquired a couple of NOS synchros for these early boxes,

113 311 247A part number

but the thin nature of the gear face
means that the taper is often incorrect for a new synchro.
For this reason,
more often than not I replace both first and second gear with the later parts.

I use 113 311 269A for both first and second gears.
