    These episodes demonstrate such authority and command of the subject matter, I haven't had a mini since 1979 but I am compelled to watch them; I just wish you wouldn't keep us waiting so long for each follow up.

    Swapping the diff case is also a great way to re purpose an ado16 gearbox case!

    Aqua blasting still uses a media, ceramic beads which are just as likely to cause contamination of oil as any other type of media blasting if not thoroughly cleaned.

      If that worried about media contamination (even after flushing / cleaning) then i'd pick either soda or CO2 blasting, soda disolves with water and CO2 just 'evaporates'!

    I’ve just rebuilt a race box that used your competition synch rings - appears to have broken them after three races (short), time for a dog box?

    Excellent video. Is there a reason for going Magic Wand over a Rod change?
    I thought rod change would be more precise?

      The original box was remote, not rod..... and, he said they didn't want to cut a hole in the floor for the remote shifter....

      @@ronald1968 i know it was originally remote. I just thought they were sacrificing some gear change accuracy but not going to magic wand instead rod change.

      @@Alan-wu3ry a well set up wand, will be as accurate as a rod, or remote... most if the slack people associate with wands is down to the worn bushes in the diff case that the shafts go through

      I’ve got a 4 synchro box in mine with a magic wand diff housing and the shift is very precise (of course you need to replace the bushes and check everything properly). I’d recommend it for anyone who want to keep the magic wand and have all synchro

    Why switch to a magic wand from a remote type shifter?

    • @MEDEngineeringTechVideos
      @MEDEngineeringTechVideos  7 місяців тому +1

      So we could keep the bodyshell original - the remote box would need us to cut a hole in the floor, which seemed a shame.
