[Fot] TR6 transmission rebuild - counter shaft gears

[fubog1]

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).

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
