Hi I have refurbished an aussie top loader using parts from Davidkeestoploaders in the states. check out 4speedtoploaders.com   I replaced all synchros, bearings-(race series bearings), 2nd and 3rd gears, and more. The quality of the parts are exceptional. It took only ten days to arrive from dallas/texas to tasmania. The cost was half of what you would pay in aus. It also came with detailed D&A instructions. As for doing the job yourself you would need some gearbox rebuilding experience. Cheers richard.

thanks for your responce richard,will seek website out and see whats available,the gearbox that came out from factory was a three speed manual,they have probably done me a favour dropping in a four speed! the numbers say its out of a 69 fairlane!
