Lotus 5-speed Gearbox Parts

PostPost by: elans4dhc » Sun Nov 19, 2006 3:31 pm

Does anyone know of a list translating the component part numbers of both the Elan+2 and the subsequent Elite/Eclat Lotus 5-speed gearbox into their original British Leyland part numbers?

Also I'm looking for a copy of the following related Service Bulletins: 1976/01, 1976/08, and 1978/01.

These people do a few of the 5-speed gearbox bearings

Not used them myself, but may do when/if the need arises...

In the Lotus Drivers' Club Technical Tips publication (well worth getting!) there is an article called 'Rebuild & Uprating of the Elan+2 5-Speed Gearbox' by Jon Dobson. It has a list of all the bearings with the Lotus and the Unipart part numbers.

I have a copy of the Austin Maxi parts list on microfiche and one day/decade plan to make a list of all the gearbox part numbers relevant to the Lotus unit....
