[QUOTE="Monkeypants, post: 52998, member: 2708"] Steve, are these shims or the thrust washers? I recall two thrust washers but I believe their positions are shown on the Quaife drawing. I used the bevel stop and spring. The spring does make assembly easier and quite a number of dry runs were needed to get things working. The bevel stop did not present a problem other than that it was in the way once I realized it was necessary to mill ten thou from the face of the crankcase in the ratchet shaft bevel gear pivot area. This transmission has not been down the road yet, but it shifts OK on the bench. I had an opportunity to ride a Vin with Quaife last week, what a treat to shift, as nice as a good AMC box, and that is pretty good! Glen [/QUOTE]
