Hi,
My first post! I have just completed and run the prototype of my aluminium gearbox to enable the Team-C geared diff to be used in the Lupuz/TC02C and anything else that uses the original gearbox from the Lupuz. Would anyone else be interested? My current plan is to make a small batch and get one on ebay asap. I shall try to attach a picture but as I have said, this is my first post on this forum so anything might happen. |

Price is a good question.
If I logged all the hours spent on the prototype it would be about £30,000 but, as with all things, it is worth what you can get for it. I notice that a Schumacher aluminium gearbox retails for about £65 so my plan was to put is on ebay with a starting price of £50 and see where it went. The rear T-Plate has to be modified and the price would include the supply of a modified part plus gear casing and fasteners. Because the T-Plate has to be machined away where the gearbox sits, I have extended the gear casing forward to provide two additional fixing points, ahead of the thick rib that locates the pivots for the rear wishbones. It's a very stiff assembly. For a limited period, anyone who contacts me via a PM on this forum (if you have them) and subsequently sends me a T-Plate for modification, can have one at the starting price of £50. Orders would be taken in strict rotation. Personally, I think that you should buy them just to put in a glass case and look at them! But I'm biased. ![]() I suspect, but I'm still measuring one up, that the Durango diff would also fit. It would be of assistance to me if someone could please give me a definitive list of all the Team-C cars that this gearbox is used on. ![]() |

Thanks Lee,
The next one will be even prettier and a tad lighter too. ![]() It's spoken for but I have material for two more at the minute. Is there a truck or SC variant? |

Sorry Kusal, I missed your question regarding shipping earlier. Shipping to Belgium would be an additional cost in the order of £10 to £12 for a two day service. I originally stated that I would require the T-Plate to be sent to me for modification but I see that DMS have them in stock at £4 so that is another additional cost if you don't have a spare T-Plate and want to keep racing whilst I'm machining. Cheers Clive |
