Well I had a little play with the seller!

Dear 948654qb,

I am interested in the transfer box as it is very difficult and expensive to get hold of the right parts to make RockLobster transfer boxes at the moment. What extra parts will it need to add to this to modify it

Dear martinlines,

Hi,
Ideally you need a 410 transfer box to rob bits from and the it's a matter of disassembling the jimny one and then rewelding the right gears in.
There are a few write ups on the web. Though I'm afraid I can't remember who the author is.
Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

As its getting near the end of the auction I had to come clean in the hope that he doesn't mislead someone.

I had a look around the Internet and found the guide on the BigJimny website, it was written by Martin Lines, oh - wait a minute - thats me.

The Jimny box you have is a Jimny box, not a 410 or 413 box. It is not suitable for building a RockLobster, it is only suitable for using as a replacement for a Jimny box where the chain has worn out. It is worth between £50 and £100 for this purpose. Please remove all references to Rocklobster from your advert as it cannot be used for this.

He's not another Rockwatt then. I'll stick with the original and best shed builder - sorry Richard, that term just makes me chuckle.
