Mechbox Help!

Irishmaster

Hi, is there anyone in the Dublin 13 region that can help me put back a mechbox back together? Will pay 10 euro. Its been a pain in the arse!

The Master

I'm in Donaghmede , what problems are you having? what version gear box?

Irishmaster

Just a normal version 2 m4 mechbox! When are you free? Ive put one back before but am not any good at it.

The Master

I'll be free later this evening if you still need help.

What's the problem exactly?

Just putting all back together? or is there something broken?

Have you checked out the vids on mechbox for a guide to re-assembling a v2 gearbox?

No parts are broken. Its just im crap at putting it back together as i just got a new spring and parts just keep flying everywhere. Yeah looked at that site already! I can drop down to you anytime! Just let me know when?

Tip: when fitting everything back together it can be alot easyier if you find a extra pair of hands to hold the spring / piston casing in place as you fit the outer casing And you dont need a vicelike grip hold it firmly in place until the first screw in ( your anti rev latch or gears might not line up to the upper holes use a small screw driver to tweak them into place )





p.s. spring guides can sometimes have a mind of their own and fire out the back of your mechbox embedding themselves in a wall ( true story )

Put a screwdriver in through the spring guide, to pin it down.

Also, if you get a set of magnets they can hold the gears in place by their axles.
