Good Day 1st Post, and a Question
Thanks
I have a 5 speed box from a cali II 80's that has the #5 gear moving so far back on the main shaft that it has worn an arc into the boss (aluminum), as well as the outer bearing race on the output shaft perhaps 1 MM deep.
The shaft has the standard 2 mm shim and thrust bearing with washers on the forward end.
Find this really unusual, it appears there should be a shim at the rear and less of a shim at the forward end.
Perhaps the gear cluster 1 and 2 (I believe) has moved rearward on the main shaft.
Sorry no picture of the mess , but did attach some artwork showing where the wear is
Looking for other ideas, anyone else found this problem?
Thanks in Advance
