heawooi Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Has anyone got a blocker bar for 1st/2nd on a type9? I'm having a gearbox rebuilt and one bar is damaged but no-one seems to sell them Thanks Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevanP Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Try these people, I've not used them before but they seem to stock them: https://www.bearingkits.co.uk/ If not BGH might be able to help http://www.bghgeartech.co.uk/html/bgh_home.html 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heawooi Posted March 21 Author Share Posted March 21 Cheers @KevanP tried those guys but they hadn't got back to me. However I have now sourced a used set from Paul at https://www.firstmotion.co.uk/ ... seems a really helpful chap 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevanP Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 The old Ford one's used to be made from pressed steel, and wore over time. Most will make solid steel one's now, which are much more reliable and heavy duty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
