[Tigers] Ankle safety - Bellhousing Alignment

[Jim]

Hi Dave /Joel
That Dan is a walking encyclopaedia of toploaders  lol!   His shop hours are
noon to midnite ! ... for the Ausies who buy a lot of his stuff . I bought a
real nice repro early Cobra shift handle for the Hurst linkage on my
toploader ... looked great! ... but now on the shop floor after the T5
transplant... 
You're right about the alignment... my toploeader had the wrong ( smaller
o.d. ) bearing retainer and didn't pilot in the Lakewood properly ... chewed
the ring gear off!  I also got a set of dowel pins/sleeves from him and
dialled the whole thing in proper.

Hi Joel;

I just finished refreshing my Toploader with some parts I got from Dan. Had 
a really interesting conversation with him over the phone. I'm sure you know

what I mean!

BTW, the pdf links did not come through, and, like others I am sure, I would

love to have a copy of these sheets. Any chance you could e-mail me a copy?

Thanks,

Dave Munroe
