LT 95 Fairey overdrive (Devon) reconditioning
Gazzar replied to Gazzar's topic in International Forum
Thanks, I'll be reading Gavin's instructions several times. And I've his number. I'm going to see if I can rebuild the scrap one as well. -
Okay, from a guy who has one: Ten made. Only six or so in existence, all known to be in museums. Dunsfold bought his.

Done.

I've a few names of people who might know people? No definite leads.

Thanks, not deserved. As someone who just put the short drive shaft into the long side of the axle casing, and didn't spot it, NOT deserved. I'm not entirely with it mentally, and already planning to redo some work as I'm not happy with it... -

I'm going to clean this all up during the week, and hopefully rebuild next weekend. Other things on, which may interfere. But for now I've an 88" I need to assist on. -

Never opened a series one, but I'm told these are tougher. One difference is better lubrication, there's two drillings from the transfer box so they share the lubrication. -

The big front roller bearing is held in with a wire clip. I drifted the bearing out with a long socket extension, gentle taps. -

Then, as I'd fully removed the hub and man shaft, I used a hammer handle to drift out the rear bearing. -

Then I did this different to Gavin's instructions. I took out the synchro baulk rings and associated washers. One comes out the front. -

Removing the smaller of the two circlips allows the mainshaft to come out from the front. Carefully, as there are a lot of bearings and thrust washers at the back, note the taper on the washers. -

I cleaned around the layshaft then used a drift to gently rotate the shaft prior to pulling the shaft out with a strong magnet. It was slow at first, but no real drama. -
