For those who keep asking, it is not sold out. I have several copies left from this run (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

It is nice to see them getting to where they are going. I am glad that you like them. Without Eric's work on this, it would have likely been me and a video camera in the garage (cheaper and crappy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ).

Where do I send payment for this awesome DVD???

I've watched it end-to-end twice, each time all the way through in one sitting. Best damned cinema I've seen in a long time.

Line of the movie: "If that were a woman, I'd have her tested..."

ROFLMAO.

Heck, you are in the credits at the end as well. I considered giving you character credit as "Igor" but I figured it was not needed.

Thanks for your help on the day of the primary shoot.

BTW, I also gave you credit for the Intestinal gurgling! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) in the "Ratings" box.

Hey, my weekend entertainment is now assured. Providing the warden allows me some tube time. It is diff pulling time this weekend.
Did I mention that I found a second broken mainshaft? This was more of a clean break with everything still in place.

Wow, where did it break? Between the 23 and 45 gear sets, next to the intermediate plate or on the R1 side?

Right next to second gear. The rest of the shaft was still in the bearing this time probably because the break was very flat. The other one was a spiral break which pushed the broken piece through the bearing to rattle around in the tailcover. See this post:

Thanks for the info Dave!!

I am always amazed when a shaft breaks on these trans, not because the trans fails, but because the way that metal fatigue and such can work and the materials science.

Could you post picture of the actual two pieces and the break?

It arrived on Friday, saw it after I got home from work, just as I was rollin'n out the door to the lake. Now Sunday night, I will be watching as soon as I unpack and wash a few layers of stink off. Thanks for all the hard work and the information that would normally take at least the fourth rebuild to find out what I did wrong!

For the first time in 59 years, I finally understand how a transmission works! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Every time I up shift or downshift, I can see those little bands, slipping and sliding to spin a gear up to speed. All of the stess and strain on those little expensive parts. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) All the time pushing those little $200 bearings to overspin on a hard downshift. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Feeling how expensive it is on every shift when nicking another gear and thinking about how the pointy house tops inside the spinner thingey part starts chipping and wearing down to become a flat top California ranch house. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif)

Is it just me or should we all just stay in first gear and drive around the block?

(Seriously, Dr. It's a great tool.) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
