The jack isn’t lifting anything there, and the axel stands are vertical, it’s just perspective I assure you.

Update: Syncro on 4th has split. Probhably the reason the pin sheared in the first place.

Got to pull engine/geabox out and rebuild. So gutted. Can anyone recomend a good/cheap gearbox specilist near Matlock area?

Sent it to Northampton gearbox center on the recommendation of a friend. 

Engine is now out, but found a crack in the frame behind the engine mounts. Gonna weld it and patch it.

If there’s not something wrong with it, you’re not driving it hard enough!
