fitting an overdrive - the Dormawagon
This is the centre tool box on the wagon. Is it like the blanket box in Dan C's or the one Dormy had to modify when he fitted the overdrive? Looks to me that it might hang low enough to foul the Fairey overdrive I'm about to fit, what do you think gentlemen?

Yep, pretty sure that will foul
The shallow toolbox is only about 4" deep - just enough for a few tools and no blankets!
See if you can pick one up at the Ripon spares day, or you might need to get that one modified.
Cheers,
Robin.

Though the Fairey won't need as much clearance as the Bearmach with it's "Top Hat", the adjustment your box would require would be in the rear of the open section. This will restrict access (making a step up/down) to the enclosed rear section of your box. It would probably require such contortion to get anything in or out as not to be worth the effort !

Thank you gentlemen, I'll have a look round at Ripon. Failing that will have to replace my burnt out anglegrinder and get to work!
