I know it sounds stupid, but make sure the gaiter is the right way around. :roll:

Mine keeps popping out at the minute, but I haven't bothered turning the gaiter around yet lol

this could be caused by a number of things. I'll start with the easy fixes then move onto worse case scenarios :lol:

were all the mounts ok when you fitted it? Arms bent? is the lever hitting the bodywork? Try swapping the shifter bush (pull the lever out and the bush it sits on) with the one from your old tbox. Could be a broken/missing detent ball on one of the selector shafts? (perhaps someone has stripped the case and not put it back together properly in the past?) Des it grind when it pos out? There could be a problem with the front output shaft;it might have broken? Alot of US guys have had this problem and found that shimming the front input stops it happening.

You'll find Rockwatt in the recomended traders section. Just PM him for prices and details about getting a rocklobster built.
