Just wondering if there are any tests you can do or inspections to make on a gearbox that is out of a car that I'm looking to buy? Short of taking it apart. It is LSD aswell so anything I can do on that front? ta

check for gearbox leaks,,,,
Rotate the input shaft by hand back and forth , note any excessive grinding or overly loud bearing noise. Put thru gears with a screwdriver in the selector , make sure fairly firm and ok to select gears etc

Yeah righto. Thanks guys. Its a h22a box so cable shift.

Look through the axle holes.
In a non-lsd box you will be able to see the pinion shaft.
A LSD will be able to see clear through from one side to the other.
