This thing hauls ass now, just put a full load on and it still boogeys! 

turned into a right ball ache as the old box didn't fit so had to get one that did (supposedly reconed, It doesn't graunch and shifts super smooth!) 

then got the new box in and the PTO didn't fit, this was rather shit as couldn't source anything second hand and had to splash out on a new PTO and pump old pump wouldn't fit new PTO!! It is super quiet now tipping as the old one must have been rather well used as it was super noisey.

Just finished making a new pivot point on the box to switch from pulling at the top to pulling from the bottom, to reverse the shift pattern, I drove it home with 1st 3rd and 5th at the bottom and it was a bit of a head fuck.  Much nicer to drive with the usual pattern, still needs a bit of adjustment in the linkage but it's pretty close now.

exhaust brake isn't working and the starter solenoid sounds like it is bouncing when starting so need to sort those few things.

Probably not, but check the idle knob isn't wound in a bit for the exhaust brake 

Will check that cheers! I haven't had a good look at it yet. It does idle a bit higher than it did before so it's quite possible?
