/5 Gearbox Parts Availability

Post by Deleted User 62 »

I read somewhere, maybe here, that parts for rebuilding the /5 four speed gearboxes were getting hard to find or were already unobtainium. I'm curious, which parts exactly are the ones that are no longer available? I see NOS stuff show up on German eBay occasionally, and I'd like to refine my searches.

Are you looking for a particular part? I think that the sector shaft is NLA.

I don't see "sector shaft" in the parts book, which part is that? Aren't the early style gears NLA, and (just guessing) the wear parts like shift forks and ? Edit: well I seem to have answered my own question, went to Max fische and checked what is NLA for the 4 speed gearboxes. The sector shaft is still available, but the intermediate shaft and a couple of sleeves, bushings and the kick start gear are NLA.
