This partial gear kit set from Burton Power is designed to lower the ratio of first gear from a short 3.65:1 to a much more usable 2.98:1.<\/p>\n<p>The kit includes a brand new mainshaft first gear and a used layshaft cluster that has been modified and fitted with a new first gear. The remaining gears do not require replacing. Each kit is supplied on an outright basis with no surcharge or return of original required.<\/p>\n<p>The Ford Type 9 five-speed gearbox (also referred to as a &#8216;Type N&#8217; gearbox in some workshop manuals) was Ford&#8217;s first rear wheel drive five-speed \u2018box. It was based on the four-speed Type E and features a cast iron main case with alloy tail-housing.<\/p>\n<p>This gearbox is the most commonly used for five-speed conversions on older vehicles and as well as kitcars it\u2019s commonly transplanted into other classic makes such as MG and Triumph. A 4&#215;4 version of this \u2018box was also available and fitted to early XR4x4 and Granada Mk3 models (note \u2013 this kit does NOT fit 2.8 boxes).<\/p>\n<p>Order as Part Number: GBT9200 at \u00a3250 inc VAT from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.burtonpower.com\">www.burtonpower.com<\/a> or 0208 554 2281 <strong>ENDS.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>If you\u2019re one of the many, many kitcar enthusiasts with a Ford Type 9 gearbox.
