Long shot - Type 9 Ali bellhousing

As the box is coming out at some point, I might as well shed a couple of KG at the same time.

Anyone got an ali bellhousing laying about for a T9 box?

Hi

When buying a genuine ford RS 2000 item check them very carefully for being square across the gearbox and engine faces.
They are a rather fragile bit of kit and generally they distort if in a road accident etc. Problems that then arise and not usually straight off are. Front bearing on gearboxes knacker up in a short time and numerous clutch problems due to the drive plate not being aligned with the gearbox.

Cheers Matt

They also tend to crack, and being alloy the chances of stripped threads is quite high on s/h items (but can be easily helicoiled).

Probably worth knowing that Rally Design sell new ones for £129+vat
