Hi all, I'm have a few questions I would like answered if possible, firstly I have a type 9 ford box 4 speed with a Laycock overdrive attached can anyone tell me where or who could supply me with a conversion plate please, secondly the gearbox I have in my cf at the moment is a 4 speed Vauxhall one, is it possible to fit the Laycock overdrive from the Ford box to the Bedford /Vauxhall box, thanks

The only adaptor plate that I've seen was CNC machined for the one job.
Unfortunately I didn't find out who made it.
Keep an eye on eBay: I've seen one at least in the past year or so.

To swap the overdrive you'll need a Vauxhall gearbox mainshaft for overdrive; 4-speed gearbox will need dismantling to fit the shaft.

Thanks Phil, in your opinion which gearbox would you go with, to be honest I'm unsure what to do, thanks again.

Hi Martin, I will probably be making a couple of CNC adapter plates for type9 in the following months.
I will let you know here when that happens.
