Even a really tame Ford dealer struggled to decode the rest of the numbers on the tags many years ago.

The IB5 is easier to tell as it has a lot more external webbing as well as even more uprated bearings.

The number cast on the gearbox is just for that casting, the only useful bit is the 87 which means that part was first used in 1987. So they are probably both Mk2 Fiesta BC boxes Not the strongest boxes for a 2.0 or ST170 engine. There is a lot of confusion on the net over which boxes are BC, B5 and IB5 (Improved B5). Jim From: russ price Sent: Wednesday, September 11, 2019 12:30 PM To: Quantum Owners Group Subject: [Quantum Owners] Re: Gearbox H4 The numbers cast on the gearbox are on the H4- 87 TT 7F 096 AB on the saloon- 87 TT 060 AA. I'm unable to find these listed anywhere online. Descriptions/images on websites appear contradictory but BC type seems the most likely. Can anyone decypher the numbers please?

I think it will be easier and cheaper to change the box rather than repair it. The question is what is suitable box. This one perhaps :- ebay g/box<https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2000-Ford-Fiesta-MK5-1-6-Petrol-Manual-Gearbox-ONLY-43-124-Miles-96WT-7F096-AB/153270597837?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649> I would have to swap the bell housing as i have a cable clutch but that shouln't be a big deal.
