The driveshaft couplings on the box is the issue. There are 90mm and 100mm. They can be swapped over

Thats what I thought,  :huh: It looks like they made more work for themselves, and possibly now you're paying the price...
I think i'd be inclined to get a new clutch for the new box, swap the joints over, and fit the new box... i think :lipsrsealed:

As above makes so much more sense.. Looks to us like the garage didn't really know dubs otherwise they would of known they can change the couplings in a matter of minutes..
