Hi Peter,
I'm not quite sure in every details but most of the parts in the UG2/30 cannot be replaced with UG2/27 parts. Especially the synchro-rings were modified when superseding the UG2/27 to the UG2/30 because just the synchronisation of the UG2/27 had deficits which were fixed with completely new parts in the new gear.
It seems as if shift collars and bearings of the most used gear wheels are worn out...
Are You able to make a detailed diagnosis of the parts which have to be replaced? The repair manual is available in english language and when You have a list of the parts, we may help You to get them new or used in good condition. Some of the parts like bearings are standard and available everywhere. Taxes and insurances for the transportation to Your location may be a problem but problems are there to be solved. We have some very good mechanics in our forum and many adresses for parts and with the help of those who can translate between You and them all, it may be possible to have Your MBtrac repaired!
greetings to Your wonderful home country (a friend of mine was in South Africa just a few weeks ago and I think I must see it also)

Die 3 MBtrac-Grundsätze:
1.) Ein MBtrac ist zwar nicht alles, aber ohne MBtrac ist alles nichts!
woraus folgt:
2.) Ein Leben ohne MBtrac ist möglich - aber sinnlos...
doch zum Glück für die vielen Nicht MBtrac Besitzer:
3.) Nur wer einen MBtrac besitzt, weiß, was allen anderen fehlt...
