Purchased a +2 S/130 5 speed gearbox, we had much trouble: no chance to get the reverse gear in! Now put off the box and discovered that there was wear at some bits. Now I need help/answer concerning 2 questions:
1. Does anybody know where I can get these 3 little parts (pictured) in new or very good used condition??
2. (First pic:) The odometer drive bearing/ring (as I'm german, I've no idea how it's called ) shows a sort of inner "markings/lines" to fix it onto the "axle/shaft" where it is fixed. But this axle do not show any counterpart markings(?). In other words: Is it correct that the ring/bearing can turn freely onto the shaft/axle?? This seems to be strange to me as it has to be fixed!
Many thanks for your help, guys.

Brian, thanks for your ultra-fast reply! Yes please, if you send me his address/email, I would be very thankful.
Other question: What is the function of this little screw under the gearbox linkage/gearstick box? There is a screw that seems to regulate something??

Sorry I'm a bit late but the screw is there to retain the interlock spool..

The same gearbox with a different output shaft casing for the different gear lever location and different bell housing for the 907 engine was used on the 1970's Series 1 Elite. A complete used 5 speed lotus gear box from this car is about 200 pounds
