It would be great if you can post a picture of that here.
What is time period the bad 5th gear was installed into the GU gearbox?

There is good pics floating around showing the changes. Potentially on the other patrol site. I will endeavour to get some pics if I get my old gearbox back from the mechanic.
The problem boxes I believe were early TD42t/ZD30 GU's up till some stage in '02.

Didnt see this before my previous response.
Yep thats one of the good pics I mentioned. They have also increased the length of the spline on the main shaft. Massive overall increase in contact surface area between the shaft and gear.

So i ended up getting a 2nd hand 3L crd gearbox from patrol-a-part. Only had 77k kms I believe. All in and installed and I am back on the road.

I'll check mate. Good advise. I had to remove the engine mounts and drop the engine onto the chassis mounts to do it myself last time I had it out.
