AMC Gearbox Camplate Shaft

[Mick D]

Hi

I'm rebuilding an AMC gearbox post strip down and inspection which will be installed in a G15CSR so I wish to 'reverse' the gearchange mode by fitting a reversed camplate.

There does not seem to be any means, (other than an interference fit), of retaining the shaft in the camplate.

Before I do anything I may regret during the application of sound engineering practice , can anyone advise of any pitfalls to be avoided when swapping the camplates?

Hi Mick.

The application of sound engineering practice would be "hit it with a big 'ammer"

Seriously, I have never changed one so other than the new camplate being a loose fit (easily fixed with a few tack welds) I can't think of any pitfalls.

Kind regards Colin
