Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I confirm this kit is correct for my F40 gearbox?
A: Count the teeth on your existing 2nd gear (should be 53T) and verify the selection tooth pitch angle. The F40 has no universal reference code, so visual confirmation is essential.

Q: Should I replace the synchromesh hub whenever I change the gear?
A: Yes. The hub and synchromesh rings wear together. Replacing the gear alone without the hub risks early failure.

Q: Is this kit for the input or output shaft side?
A: This is for the output shaft side of the 2nd gear assembly.
