XR6 gearbox rebuild needed

hi all,

dunno if anyone can help, i have a XR6 skinny gearbox that i bought sometime ago, i was sold it as a working box but unfortunatly when i launched my boat with it fitted, reverse worked fine to get it off trailer but forward was not there, just crunched as if it wanted to go into gear but not quite gettin there. iv had the box off and tryed to select gears manualy with mole grips, reverse and neutral have a nice notched click as it should but forward doesnt click in and the selector just keeps spinning in the forward direction!!

i am now running a standard box on my XR2 but looking to rebuild the XR6 box. i have shown it to a few people locally but as the box is so narrow, special tools maybe needed?

does anyone know someone who could rebuild this box for me and at what sort of cost? i really would like to get this box running as iv heard good reports on them being the fastest box for a merc V6

thanks
