Re: [SPIT6CGT6] Converting GT6 trans to J type overdrive.If you keep blowing
out circlips, it suggests to me, that some
of your clearances of the gears and spacers might need checking.
You really shouldn't be able to forcibly pop them all too easily.
I've heard some people go to a spiral clip rather than just a C clip
(flat metal multi-turn spiral clip) They are much more 'fixed'
when in place. No... I hve no idea of the size of part number....

Paul,
I am reading your site really quick and I currently am having issues with
my gt6/OD gearbox in that I have lost 2nd & 3rd probably due to a circlip
issue again. Would you suggest I actually give up on this gearbox and
install a J type?
Other than the mounting change is it straight forward swap?
Thanks
