Ok. I asked about withdraw of the rear thrust washer up through the case
because it looked to me that this would work. I had a good shot at it with a
punch trying to drive it up and out and I was not making progress. The tab is
correctly aligned (not spun).
It maybe that the centerline of the lay gears was slight off center while I was
whacking away at the thrust washer. I'll try again by getting the lay gears
back in alignment and then attempt to get the washer out.
Thanks for the input guys.
