Spitfire Single Rail Transmission Overhauling - Part 1 - Disassembling
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 авг 2024
- This transmission came to me partially disassembled. Lets explore how the single rail shifter works and then take the transmission apart for inspection. There will be two more videos later - one showing what and how to inspect and measuring tolerances, and then another on about assembling the transmission back together.
It also has a J-type overdrive, which will also be overhauled, but we are not going to film that part as we already have a J-type overhauling playlist on the channel. Link below.

The financial support to the channel doesn't buy you anything special. There is no such thing as early access or VIP content here as I don't want to take away from those who can't afford it. The financial support is your way of saying "Thank you Elin for taking the time to edit these videos!", but only if you feel like it and you can afford it. Just being here, watching, liking, sharing is also a big support and I appreciate it.
THANK YOU!

I love the sound of rain and thunder!
This gearbox was the result of serious rationalisation within British Leyland in the mid 70s… it was shared with Triumphs like the Spitfire, TR7 and Dolomite, but also the MG Midget and Morris Marina, and probably some others like vans etc….
Good work,thats a lot of gears toknow and understand and you definitely have the knowledge. Thanks for the video.
Great explanation Elin! As usual.
Elin, another great video; very informative and well explained.
I can't help but wonder what Insane Asylum they placed the poor engineer after he struggled to design the single-rail gearbox; what a devil of a puzzle! lol
SCARY STUFF!!!!!!
Seen many of theses boxes, have fun. (I prefer the 3 rail box) if you want 1st synchro, use GT6 box or Spitfire mark 4.
Very interesting. I was not aware of single-rail gearboxes and now I know how they work! 😂 Thanks for sharing your extensive knowledge, Elin! 😊
A Counsler II very good.
Very interesting, we always avoided single rail boxes back in the day, regarding them as 'inferior' to the more normal design, having said that, the J-type Overdrive is superior to the D-type.
Yes the difference was mainly was the Ist/2nd gear syncro unit passes through the reverse idler gear when selecting 1st gear, and this continuous action eventually chips these gears, where as the non synchro box (3 rail) generally you are stationary before attempting to select 1st gear also I've seen the result of the pins drop out in the selector in the single rail box.
First... Thanks Elin.
