Gearbox 2.

After preparing the parts, I started building the unit.


First the selectors go in.


The selectors are held in position in gear and neutral by theese items, which end in a ball. They need to move free and need to be held tight by their springs in order to make the gearchange feel all right.


The springs sit behind their securing bolts. Theese bolts are sealed with copper rings. In order to make them seal, I heated them before instaling.


You have to pay attention when fixing the selector forks onto their shafts. They have to be in perfect position, unless You will end up with a pudding stearing like gearchange and sooner or later a destroyed selector shaft.


The reverse gear shaft was checked for straightness and wear.


No problem was found, soo I installed the assembly.
