[Roadsters] 5th Gear noise

[Bill Cole]

The countershaft bearing in the centerplate is destroyed, I found some 
bits of bearing cage in the tail housing. So then, once I opened up the 
main case it was obvious where the material came from. By the way the 
bearing looks, I doubt if it would have lasted much longer before it 
caused major problems. This is a brass syncro transmission so I hoping 
it might have the splined 5th, once I round up another 1-1/2" wrench 
I'll find out.. Bill
