if you can`t get one you could always drag out the trolley jack and the welder and some scraps of steel and get a bit inventive .

actually now i think about it, i`m pretty sure tranny lifters are an item you can hire in a lot of places, it might be worth a look in kennards or coates hire.

here`s another option, looks pretty cheap actually, i suspect they would post/courier one out, i have a standard 2 ton trolley jack and it looks like it would fit, it appears to be a universal fit(would pay to check dimensions though), mind you i don`t think i`d like to put a kenworth gearbox on it .

That Radum gear is quite solid stuff, I've been to their shop & looked at the gear.
