To be ready for the Arcimoto FUV when it ships, I need to let go of some items, possibly including the 5-speed that was in my notchbak Type III.

I called Gene Berg [RIP] about his five-speeds, but he grumbled about getting out of that line, so I went with the Mikey 5-Speed out of Beaverton Oregon. I still have the build sheet with the ratios somewhere. It would need to be converted from swing axles, and the sheet metal would have to be bumped and the shifter modified.

The problem with second gear syncho that prompted the rebuild came back, and I had it sent it to a shop in Bend for a 2nd rebuild and it came back no better. But I drove on it a lot double-clutching to shift down into second.

I could give you an Ecomodder discount, minus the axles and brakes (you already have).
