genkiracing Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 I'm just testing the waters to see if anyone is interested in picking this up used. We are looking to upgrade to a full blown alloy racing box, so I wondered if anyone wanted my old one. It's a Ford Rocket 4speed long-tail box with an almost new Quaife rally gearset. Straight cut with syncros. Ratios: 2.390 1.690 1.340 1.000 At the moment it has been drained and then cleaned inside and out with solvent. I want to sell it without the shift lever or yoke. Here are the fixes to bring it back to great condition: - shift lever (not included) ~$100 - output shaft yoke (not included) ~$100? - The nose-cone/bearing-retainer is cracked and needs to either be welded and sanded or replaced. ~$150 new - The nose cone ground a little notch in the input shaft, so if you really want perfect you could replace, but it won't affect anything. - The bolt holes to the bell housing are stripped so it needs either non-standard bolts or to be re-threaded. - New seals ~$35 Taylor sells these things new for $4630 http://www.taylor-race.com/part.cfm?id=4664&category=Transmissions&subcategory1=Quaife&subcategory2=Rocket I am looking to get 2k plus shipping. If anyone is interested let me know and I'll take some pics and post them. Link to comment
genkiracing Posted April 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 Just got hold of a beautiful nose cone for this box that I won't be using. I'll throw that on shortly, so the only thing to make this a runner is new seals/gaskets and a helicoil or rethread on the bell-housing bolt holes. Still $2,000 Link to comment
