Tranny Update

[Scott Eakers]

I decided to tear my 47 8N down today. I got her broke down front half first and then the tranny side. Good thing, because I found a busted housing flange that I was completely unaware of. I found that the second gears were jammed together, they released as soon as I unbolted both bearing retainers, I guess the pressure released when the shafts were free to move rearward. I appreciate the help from you all, I am not glad I had problems but I am glad I know how they come apart and work now.

Thanks for keeping us posted, no telling how many folks you help doing that.
