60L A series 5spd box

[kartboy]

has anyone got a rough idea of what these are worth to buy, one on trade me at moment but I don't really know what they are worth

[2 doors]

bart would be the man to answer that question

[Bartman]

I'd say $300+. The high demand for these boxes has pushed the price up here. I know a number of people who have exported them to Australia. And have also heard numourous aussie's say that they've bought them off tardeme too.

[kartboy]

Yeah I have bid to $300 but don't really want to pay much more, will see what happens when it closes tonight

[Brnwgn]

i just brought one 4 $300 and it would of gone for more on tm. and it will probaly need pulled apart an checked anyway.

[kartboy]

Are Dog leg boxes better than the standard 5 speed?

[Brnwgn]

they run different syncos and i find the dog leg ones are way stronger and longer lasting, thats just my experience with them in rally and race cars.

[Bartman]

Funny you should say that. I've been told that the H pattern ones are stronger.
But they are all pretty good really. I've done unholy things to them, and never broken one.

[kartboy]

I have broken many a 4spd back in the day when I had a worked A14 in a sunny, put a 5 spd in then just popped a diff after that

I heard the dogleg box has bigger syncros or something making them stronger, I never broke a dogleg box ( but then I never break anything cause as bart says I drive like a nana)
