Thought I would start a new thread for all to view and learn from.
Got the muffer and muffler bracket off for a better view. Check out the arrow below the hole?? more failure in case? Went ahead and drained the oil. Hope I don't find too much metal. Tomarrow I will start unbuckling everything so i can drop the tranny lower. Then we'll peer into the abyss..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) later Attached image(s) ![]() |

Uh, guys, that is the speedo drive gear that _DRILLED_ its way through the rear case. Either the pinion bearing failed or the large nut at the end of the pinion shaft was not tightented, came loose and machined a hole in the case.
In either case, the rear cover is hosed. Get the rear cover from your tailshift tranny and install. Or better yet, do a sideshift conversion on your old tranny and take the best parts from the two. If the bearing is OK, you will still need to replace the big nut/worm drive. It takes a 30mm socket. James |
