I think that will be a worthwhile comparison.

pat180269 said:My overriding thoughts are that either the fault is elsewhere or a large percentage of P6 gearboxes are crap and always have been. A 66K box and a NOS box with the same characteristics.
Illustrating the point further here is a you-tube video of one where the vendor mentions a whining gearbox. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqG1UBLo8Lo
I chatted with a guy at the All Rover Rally at Beamish last month who has a mint 2200TC. I only got a brief chat but he said " they scream their head off in 1st and are only really quiet in top".

Just keep in mind that 2200 TCs are supposed to be notably more civilised in comparison with 2000 TCs.

I didn't change the spigot bearing so it is a common factor between the two boxes.
Can the inpuy shaft have a side load applied if the bearing is shot and thus the layshaft ?
