The replacement items look like the ones that were in there.

It is an R10, not an R11

When the tranny is apart the rail easily slides the sun gear into the planetary gear. The planetary gears rotate and don’t rotate depending on the sun gear. When I assemble it the hub goes easily over the planetary gear.

This seemed odd to me
When I assemble the od I put the shaft and hub over the roller bearings and slide over the planetary gear.
When I put the tail piece on, you have to open up that “built in the cover” snap ring. I do that and then the bearing passes through. When the housing is in the whole way, I have to pull the shaft away from the planetary gear to lock in the snap ring.
