Am thinking of swapping gboxes on my engine. Currently run an A+ box with 3.1 diff. Not happy with gear ratios, in particular 1st & 2nd, and want to swap to a 3.44 diff. I have a 4 synchro remote box with 3.44 dif. Would like to convert it to cooper s cr gear ratios and use it. So what's involved with putting it in a clubby? Rear remote housing bracket Do I need to swap driveshafts to accommodate the steel Uni joints? Anything else? Thanks. |

You can run pot joints if you want. I just changed to pots in mine. |

depending on what year shell, you may also have to modify the hole in the floor slightly, to mount the rod change mechanism. |

I think he's wanting to go the other way - Rod change to Remote. Dicko. |

You need a gearbox, the shift mechinism, remote gearstick and a bracket from a hydro car |

I think he's wanting to go the other way - Rod change to Remote. Dicko. Typo - thanks Dicko. I say that as the floor in my '71 clubman had to be modified to fit a rod change. Maybe the very early ones came out with remote? And yes, there was a typo in my original response, I meant mount a remote. |
