Goal

Bring your Classic Mini's drivetrain back to life with a complete A-Series gearbox rebuild from Classic Mini DIY. Whether you're restoring a daily driver or building something with serious performance in mind, we rebuild your gearbox to the standard it deserves.

What We Rebuild

We offer complete rebuilds for all three A-Series gearbox variants found in Classic Minis:

  • Magic Wand
  • Remote Style
  • Rod Change

Rags to Riches

No matter the condition your gearbox arrives in, we'll return it to tip-top shape and ready to put many more happy miles on your Classic Mini. Worn synchros, noisy bearings, sloppy shifts, sitting-in-a-shed-for-decades crusty — we've seen it all, and we know how to bring it back.

Performance Upgrades Available

Looking to get more out of your Mini? We can spec your rebuild for whatever you're chasing — spirited street driving, autocross, hillclimb, full race duty, turbo builds, and more. Talk to us about straight-cut gears, close-ratio sets, upgraded diffs, and other performance options to tailor power delivery to your build.

Why Classic Mini DIY

Gearbox work is in our DNA. We live and breathe the A-Series, and every rebuild gets the same attention to detail we put into the cars in our own garage.
