The gear case has undergone extensive modification and upgrading by Mini Spares with no fewer than 58 improvements to the linkage and gear components.<\/p>\n<p>The gearbox features a closer ratio gear set than the standard four-speed item by virtue of a re-designed laygear and first motion shaft, which produce the following ratios &#8211;<br \/>\nFirst gear 3.282<br \/>\nSecond gear 1.966<br \/>\nThird gear 1.283<br \/>\nFourth gear 1:1<br \/>\nFifth gear is technically an overdrive and produces a reduction of .882 on the helical teeth gearbox, effectively giving a final drive ratio of 3.037 in fifth.<\/p>\n<p>The Mini Spares five-speed gearbox can be ordered as part number MSG05 (with helical gears and cross pin diff) at \u00a32295.00 inc VAT.
