ChrisFrench Posted November 1, 2012 Share #27 Posted November 1, 2012 Hello, Here is a simple and cheap to repair. In France, the Ventures were repaired like that. http://www.allvmax.com/technique/moteur-boite-pont/reparation-du-pignon-dattaque-du-couple-conique Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonm. Posted November 1, 2012 Share #28 Posted November 1, 2012 That French idea is great...but the drilling , etc, must be perfect.shows with the proper tools anything is possible. Still I believe Mmalaney was stating the MK1 1200s are better than the MK2 1300s final drives. I know someone who went thru three 1200 shafts in 80kmiles... but the rear drive survived.

Flyinfool Posted November 1, 2012 Share #29 Posted November 1, 2012 Anyone have a broken gear they don't want? I want to try that french repair method but with my own little twist. Mine has not broke yet. I'll post pics of the progress and do a writeup as I do the repair ......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiCarl Posted November 2, 2012 Share #30 Posted November 2, 2012 (edited) Anyone have a broken gear they don't want? I want to try that french repair method but with my own little twist. Mine has not broke yet. I'll post pics of the progress and do a writeup as I do the repair ......... I was going to offer you mine, on the condition I got it back if the repair was successful. Coupled with the final and ring gear it was originally in it'd be functional unit. Then I remembered I ended up sticking it on the chassis I sold Dingy for his V-max hybrid thing. Perhaps he still has it........ Edited November 2, 2012 by MiCarl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps he still has it........ Thats a big IF. There is always the chance that I will finish destroying it. I am not sure just how hard the metal of the gear is. I dont know If I can get away with cheap tooling ($75) or if I will need good ones ($120). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
