[TR] [NET] Incantation

[David Friedlander]

Thanks for the feedback thus far, gentlemen.

My effort only included the transmission. I didn't service or
disassemble the clutch at all. I only replaced the throw-out
bearing, the sleeve for the TO bearing, the fork and pin and
the cross-shaft bushings. The output  shaft will now not
turn when in gear, signifying to me that the input shaft has
now aligned with the splines in the clutch.
