Gearbox swapout






















The whole of last year, the Mojo had a hairline crack in its gearbox, causing it to leak oil.

I managed to source a gearbox off ebay for 99p, so ran up to Birmingham to pick it up, then fitted it a few weekends ago.

It took *all* weekend to complete, but at least it doesn't drip oil everywhere now!
While the gearbox was seperated from the engine, I put a new clutch in. Seemed like a good idea and I actually had one in the garage from when I bought the donor XR2 almost 3 years ago!
