Tight countershaft

<< < (6/6)

tobys 2 strokes:
I have had the  steel sleave in the clutch side case move . if its not all the way seated it will tighten up the out put shaft ( you are working on the out put right ? ) I have had to remove and sand the shoulder on it before when I have lapped the cases to far thats how I get the clearance lost from taking to much off the cases. if not it will tighten the out put up to much.

yeomans:
First gear on the countershaft was on backwards.
It had fallen off the shaft 2 years ago when I pulled the parts out of the box they came in.
Never thought anything of it until I went to replace with new snap rings. I was lucky to be able to compare it to another 86 trans and pick up the difference.
Thanks for everyones suggestions, this almost drove me mad.
I'll get some pics of the build up soon. :-)
