B31 front wheel spindle

It is hard work this ah ah, my frame is 1947 so that is the reason for the lug on the frame at rear of the box, however I have never seen a gearbox for sale with this facility, but I have the casing for one ! apparently it is 1938 ? I am bidding on a box on ebay now as I don't have one, but it does not have this adjuster, I suppose I will have to make and do as usual, I always said I only wanted to make a bike to run around on, I am a VMCC member and I used to go on the runs, and I miss the lads since I had no bike. So hoping this time next year I will have a B31 rigid of some breed or other to join them on the runs.

Thanks Julian

Looking back a bit further in the parts book, the adjuster 65 4184 which screws into the lug on the back of the case and  which is on the photos above is also fitted to the 1938 models B20 through to B26, 250cc and 350cc and it looks like most of those has the same or very similar gearboxes to each other. Whether the parts interchange with post war I do not know.
