369 gearbox question

[Davidmgbv8]

So I pulled my 369 transxaxle out of storage to strip off the old paint. The tube over he input shaft is cracked and worn. A new one came with the purchase of the unit. When I went to check the shaft for play it had a huge amount as if it had a ball end on it. Is this much play normal. Should I quickly get this to a transmission guy open up? Was thinking about getting a 1 piece shaft set from another member, Is this the cure?


Thanks for your advice.

Hey David
if you are in the U.K. I would suggest sending it to Chris Cole

Delorian agent? Lotus Agent? Both used the gearbox UN1
