MGA Restoration Part 2 | Front Brakes + Transmission/Driveshaft

Got a lot done in today's video! Not as long as the first one, but we wrapped up the front brakes and finally found those brake pipes I had lost! We installed the front wheels and got a sneak peek of how its gonna look further down the road! We also busted out the transmission and started tearing into that. Cleaned it up and replaced the front oil seal and gasket. Also cleaned up a few other transmission parts. We got the driveshaft cleaned up and painted as well.
I hope you enjoy the video, and give me some input on it! Tell me what you like and don't like, and hopefully I was able to maybe show you something you've never seen before!
Give the video a like and please consider subscribing with the bell on so you can get notified when I post more videos! Enjoy.

Great effort! I noticed in the video that you demonstrated connecting the flexible hose for the clutch slave cylinder to the upper port (perpendicular to the cylinder body). It actually goes in the lower port (parallel to the cylinder body). The bleed fitting goes in the upper port. Air in the system rises to its highest available point. If the bleed fitting is in the lower port, air can be trapped above it. Keep up the great work!

I’ve just found your channel and I’m really enjoying your films. You’re doing a great job and it’ll be so good to see a great British classic car preserved and back on the road.

I cannot believe that you would sandblast a steering rack or a transmission. That stuff gets into everything. I recently rebuilt an MGA engine that had sandblasting just done near it. All the bearings inside were eaten away and I could feel sand everywhere.

Looks like the tranny was wire brushed in part 3 and not sandblasted.
