Hi all
I am selling my gearbox on t'ebay and been asked if it has a matching concentric output gear. I have no idea what one is or looks like. Can anyone help? Below is the gearbox

Just tell them the gearbox is complete.... with final drive.

Sometimes people use the weirdest terminology.

So that gearbox looks complete then?

i'm curious, from my understanding of what a concentric gear is, where is there one on a mini?

[Sprocket]

Never heard 'concentric' used for gears before, but then there's a first for everything.

They might be meaning ' helical' rather than concentric.

The output gear is the pinion on the end of the mainshaft and together with The crownwheel on the differential, is the final drive.

It would be a funny old gear-train if any of the cogs didn't run concentrically!

The output gear is definitely there, and I've heard of a Concentric oil pump..... The potential buyer is talking mince.......
Maybe he means the Primary Gear to match the helix angle on the drop gears..... ???
