Here's the mainshaft on the stool. This bugger is heavy if you ever have to take one out. The manual says that if it won't "roll out" of the case after the input shaft, rear mainshaft bearing retainer and 4th gear syncros have been removed, that you must break the rear countershaft race and remove the rollers. I was able to get the race out without damage which let the countershaft move off to the side allowing the assembled mainshaft to "roll out". The second and third pics are of the third gear syncro and the gear on the side of third gear which is welded on. It looks like the gear on the side of the third gear is a little worn as the syncro has been rubbing against it. I was really hoping to not have to buy a new gear
. There's also a pic of the 80$ Craigslist press which I haven't had a reason to use yet. Lastly, I shot a text to the guy who sold me the trans asking if he remembered me. The guy got back to me when he thought I'd be looking for more parts. When I told him that the "perfect working" trans he sold me had a perfectly wasted syncro..... wait for it... no response. I figured as much. I should have known he was a little punk. Oh well, this transmission will be right when it's done!
