Hi folks!
I’m “freshing” up my transmission that came with my car - I have no idea about it’s condition. Hence, I bought Dr. Evil’s dvd and took the whole shebang a part for inspection. Surprisingly gears 2-5 look very good and it appears that the rings have been replaced and the dog teeth look nice and pointy. The only worn part appears to be the 1/R idler gear, strangely in the middle (yellow circle) and the green areas?!?! Is this normal? I have a spare idler gear with matching 1/R I’m contemplating to swap. Thanks for the groups feedback! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) dc PS: the pics were taken before the cleaning. Came out nice and clean. PPS: any suggestions where to buy the thrust and needle bearings? |
