512TR Gearbox problem.

That is amazingly quick Phil ....

 

Hi again, people!
The 512 TR is finished. Took about 9 months but I didn`t rush it.....
3 teeth on the pinion was broken. That seemed too be the main issue. The diff is intact ( but strangely that was the only part not sent back from the gearboxguy....whatch out if you see a used diff being sold out of Sweden!! hehe). Left diff cover plate had some sort of damage to it.
Thanks to turbo-Joe for the pinion and crown wheel
It was about 20000 euros all in all
Now I am back to doing burnouts!!! ( kidding...)

 

any photos of the damaged parts?

 

Good to hear, your car is ok.
That is odd, that only pinion was broken along with carrier.

 

glad that I could help with a CP set and enjoy your car, but not to the limit

 

Hi Janrbh17, please fill out your details (Right side) ... it sure helps out in communicating.

Great that the 512TR is up and running again !

It did take me more than 9 month ... and a little bit less money.

Glad you were able to find the parts (thanx to Romano who had one set of C&P) !

Which upgraded diff did you install ? Was that an easy or difficult job ?

if someone needs:
I have at home one more used CP set with matching numbers, one with not matching numbers and 1 more set made by a specialist for my competition

 

the CP set with matching numbers is sold now

 

And one more ... !

 

Complete other GB breakdown in Switzerland.

But the cure will be the same !

 

I know there's been volumes written about the diff on TR's, but can someone please tell me if the gear box and diff share the same oil, in a 512TR? This is what my mechanic has told me.

 

Yes.

If you trust people you do not know on the internet more than your mechanic to answer that question you are going to the wrong guy.

 

It's not a question at all of going to the right or wrong guy, he happens to speak Italian and is a very well respected Ferrari mechanic for over 40 years. I ask on a public forum becuase I wanted to make sure my mechanic UNDERSTOOD my question. On a side note, we both know there are a few contributors on this forum that are very knowledgeable on the subject, so I have no hesitation asking because I know who to listen to. Thanks for your reply.

 

eric, if you would read the WSM then your question you can answer by yourself.

 

Sorry for bumping an old thread..
It's a longshot, but do you have a spare ring and pinion for a BB?

I get from Tandler in Bremen (Germany) the last of 4 stronger new main shafts. My diff I repair

 

That's one of the best factories ! Good for you

Give us a short write up of your broken diff please ...
