But why only 3rd? Something must have buggered the teeth as they meshed.
Simply a hard turning
gear ought not to have done this in isolation to (for example) second gear.
OTOH, I have no answers. Did you find any big steel pieces at the bottom? Did
they look
chewed?

>I just finishing dismantling a old TR4 transmission for parts etc. The 3rd gear
both main and countershaft was toast. I was wondering what caused this trans to
self destruct. I think my answer was the same protruding roller bearing cage had
worked itself into the thrust washer and thus not giving enough "float" to
remove
the countershaft assembly.<
