Having decided on or even implemented a course of action to bolster the performance of your Mini’s engine, maximising it’s potential should encompass a good look at the gearbox. It rarely does, as most folk take one look at those seemingly formidable teeth and decide it's not for them and stay well clear.
I’m sure we’re all aware of Sir Alec Issigonis’ brilliant solution to the gearbox location in the Mini - just fold it up underneath the engine, simple. Following is a résumé of the production gearboxes to date. The first Minis rolled off the production line with a three-syncro gearbox,
It’s really quite easy to tell which generation of gearbox, shift linkage, and axles your Mini has.

Question:
Hello there! I have a 1968 Mini and have the classic gear shift lever with a lot of play in it.
Do you guys have a kit to solve this or is a rebuild the only solution?
Answer:
Hi ,
It may be some of the anti-rattle and securing hardware is worn that steadies the gear shift lever. Is your gearbox original to the car? If so take a look here and see the remote style shift components: https://www.minimania.com/catPage/4-25/4/25/0/Gear-Change-Up-to-1972-Not-Rod-Change
Hope this helps.
