Hey there
I recently lost my Borg Warner Transmission on my 80 Mainship 2. (Gulp) Does anyone have one on hand for sale? It’s a 72C with 1.91 to 1 gearing. I talked to TAD and can get a rebuild at a decent price and I’m leaning that way unless I can come up with an alternative. Another concern is the integrity of the salon deck as I’m in the process of planning out a way to build a brace to hoist up the rear of the engine to get the wasted transmission out. Engine is a Range 4 series 200hp I figure 1000-1200 lbs the rear mounts are attached to the transmission. I’m thinking some big 4X4s and a chain hoist from harbor freight.
Although floor appears solid and It will be holding up only the rear of the engine I’m a little nervous about it hanging there for a couple weeks waiting for the rebuild/exchange etc Any input would be greatly appreciated
