You bet, I loctite them when I fit them, I also use a good fitting aluminum
mandrel when I press them in.

Glen - or anyone - have you any experience with loctite and those shelled
bearings? I had that problem (bearings milling into the thrust washer) at
Blackhawk (in addition to the ventilated engine block.) It was sort of a
perfect storm of oh shit moments all condensed into 5 days!

It probably has the later type shell bearings and 1 or both have worked loose
in the laygear housing bore and "milled" into the thrust washer (s).

Subject: [Fot] TR6 transmission rebuild - counter shaft gears
I am rebuilding a TR6 transmission and ran into a strange snag. When I removed
the countershaft the counter shaft gears did not drop to the bottom of the
case. I had to tap on the counter shaft gear set with a brass punch to get them
to move far enough to allow the input shaft and gear to be removed. Now that I
have the main shaft out of the case, I can't get the counter shaft gears out of
the case. I've been able to move them a little bit by tapping on the gears with
a brass punch through the drain hole but I can't get them out. Has anyone run
into this before? Any ideas to get them out?
Thanks.
Greg
