Sorry Minster forgot that bit...Short answer no. But when I was taking it out of the halfcut I labelled everything so putting it back together shouldn't be quite so difficult. Put it this way I think it should be easier than the gearchange :lol:

Jesus 92 that is some pretty impressive engineering there. Also some very trick components. I have to ask but are you in the trade or have access to others in the trade, coz I notice a few other nice touches aswell. I might PM you if you don't mind as I have a question you may be able to answer...?

92 the arms are Starlet items aren't they just modified slightly :lol: The other pivot arm at the back left is definitely not standard. Also 92 the actual arms are aluminium aren't they. In which case nice welds...

The top arm is a starlet one just modified
The one that goes in and out is just bent and turned up side down then attaches to a bellcrank to correct direction
These are made from steel then cad plated so any welder can be used
I am fitter and turner by trade, can PM OK

the only one i've seen is the guy who put one crooked into a roundy here in Perth (see old for sales)

he actually put the selector on backwards (upside down) which made all the gears reversed (5 was first)
