Hi Simon,

Long time since seeing you in S'pore!

Sorry to hear about the problem with the Toybox. Have you contacted Marlin?

I don't remember the specifics of how a Toybox works internally; could the mini-truck crowd help in this regard?

Good luck, and take care.

Hi Alan,good to hear from you.
finally have some time to take the toybox apart.
the shiftfork broke from the rod,looks like they grind the fork too much in order to clear the gear,there is only 3mm of meat left where it broke.i took it apart,weld it back and will put it together tomorrow.
looks like they didn't have to grind the fork at all .
 
Marlin typically doesn't grind anything he doesn't have to. Might want to take pics of the work and ask over on his board. Course I'd love to see them as well.
