I bought a side shift transmission and of course the first thing I did was to take the back cover off. Good news is the dog teeth look sharp. OK, not really going to work on this right now, lets button it back up. No go. It appears that all or at least a few of the studs are splayed slightly outwards and I can get things lined up but the ting won't tap back together. I have reverse sliding across it's gear, and I am watching the notched thrust piece try to slide off, but it won't quite go. Any thoughts before I break something?

Sorry I mistakenly followed a thread and posted first in classifieds.

Make sure you stack the loose gears and not try to leave them on the tail cone! Align the stack of gears and gently slide the tail cone over them.

OK, I am aware of the thick washer. Just so I am sure, are you saying the gears for reverse that came off with the cover - thick washer, thrust bearing, gear, should start out on exactly which half as assembly begins? I just want to be sure I understand what tail cone is. Is the reverse gear stack left on the shaft in the cover as you begin assembly? Also does the brass speedo gear ever hang up, mine is a little loose in the large bolt.

Thanks guys.
