<strong>Manual</strong> <strong>Gearbox</strong> - Primary, Idler and 1st Motion Shaft Drive Gears No. Part No. Description Qty. Remarks No. Part No. Description Qty. Remarks Primary, Idler and 1st Motion Shaft Drive Gears Several different combinations of primary gear and bushes were used on the ear liest Mini power units built between 1959 and 1963, following the abject failure of the first, the so-called ‘D.U.’ bush and oil seal design (which allowed engine oil seepage onto the clutch all too frequently). As an interim measure, a revised oil-fed bush system was fitted - in most cases when the car came in for the inevitable clutch replacement - and after a couple of false starts the ‘Deva’ dry-lubricated bush became the standard fitment. Each system necessitated a different engine crankshaft and flywheel, as well as the primary gear and bushes. Extra care must be taken to select matching components for these ear ly designs. From 1963 onwards, crankshaft, flywheel, primary gear and bush combinations settled down into tw o designs, depending on the crankshaft tail dimensions: one combination for 848, 998 and 1098 engines and the other for 1071, 1275 and 970 engines. This continued right the way through to 1979 when ‘A Plus’ gears were introduced, which saw production out through to 2000. Primary gears are supplied with their bushes fitted, as ready-to-use assemblies, from Somerford Mini. However, if you intend to fit replacement bushes in a primary gear, the bushes must be machined after fitment to ensure alignment with each other. By contrast, the idler and 1st motion shaft drive gears saw far fewer changes, being limited to 3 synchro gearbox (1959-68), pre-A Plus 4 synchro gearbox (1968-79) and A Plus (1979 on). Of these, pre-A Plus 4 synchro gears may be used on 3 synchro gearboxes if certain other components are fitted at the same time. However, pre-A Plus and A Plus gears cannot be mixed and matched together. Bearings (and their retaining circlips) for the idler and drive gears may be found in the ‘Flywheel Housing and Clutch Cover’ and ‘<strong>Manual</strong> <strong>Gearbox</strong> - External’ sections of this catalogue. Primary, idler and drive gears for automatic Minis may be found in the ‘Automatic Transmission - Torque Converter and Housing’ section. Primary Gears Confusion often reigns over the convention for naming primary gear bushes. Which should be called the front bush and which should be the rear The answer is the bush closer to the front of the engine (i.e. the water pump end) is the front bush and the bush on the clutch end (the ‘top hat’ bush on post-1962 cars) is the rear bush. Hope that sorts it out. 1959-62, Oil-fed Bush 848 Engines 1 22A79 PRIMARY GEAR, with bushes, 24 teeth 1 2 22A81 BUSH, primary gear,front 1 3 22A82 BUSH, primary gear,rear 1 1961-62, Oil-fed Bush 997 Engines 4 12A380 PRIMARY GEAR, with bushes, 24 teeth 1 5 12A386 BUSH, primary gear,front 1 6 12A385 BUSH, primary gear,rear 1 1962-63, Deva Bush 848 Engines, 1 3/8" dia.
