pritesh Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 hmmm sounds like the reverse gear is nackard! if it were me i would search around on the web for a breakers and get a second hand box from a similar model. and drop it in! you would save bags of money. tis up to u, as you would have to spend time searching for one.
