    <p>..without actually seeing and feeling what is going on... my WAG
      is that the clutch thrust ring is hanging up on the spring posts..
      Where the springs replaced with new. Are they in the correct
      positions? Will the oft used wack the brake ring with a hammer
      release the condition?</p>

        <div dir="auto">I recently experienced exactly the same problem

          when turning it backwards before adding oil.</div>
        <div dir="auto">Like you I suspected the Sprague clutch but
          after considerable investigation the cause turned out to be
          the new 2nd gear syncro ring which, when the box was turned
          backwards, was winding itself tightly onto the cone of 2nd
          gear. </div>
        <div dir="auto">This is something I've never experienced before
          but concluded that it was unlikely to present a problem after
          the box has be run with new oil.</div>
        <div dir="auto">This may not be the cause in your case but
          certainly it is something worth considering. </div>

                      <div>However, I noticed when reattaching the drive

                        won't rotate in the reverse direction.  It
                        rotates easily by hand in the forward
                        direction.  This is true before and after the
                        pressure has been released.  Before getting
                        pressure in the OD it rotated by hand in both
                        directions.  I haven't tried to engage the OD. 
                         It's a hard mechanical stop.  I'm afraid the
                        one-directional clutch be engaged and I don't
