I once took my 4-speed apart to change all the gaskets and seals. Did I mention I didn't have a manual? :banghead: Imagine my surprise when I removed the tail housing and the mainshaft came out with it, dumping a bunch of roller bearings deep inside the trans. :oops: I got the roller bearings back in place and used some wheel bearing grease to hold them in place. With the help of my dad ( I was at his house ) it took many, many tries to get evertything all lined back up without knocking the roller bearings out of place. When we did get it together the mainshaft spun alot easier than it had before. The only thing I didn't remove was the reverse gear assembly to replace the o-ring on the shaft. No home-made tool. So far it's been working fine for the last few years. And no leaks!
