Ditto what you said AGBill. I received a new shaft from Snyders yesterday and there was no way the low/reverse or second/high gears would even go on it (without a hammer). Took it to a friends place this morning, chucked it up in his lathe and after 15 minutes or so with the emery cloth (sneaking up on the proper fit) had them both on the shaft and sliding perfectly.
