Hi,
I hate to bother MAC till I need to order parts, so I thought I would throw questions out here before I call him. The mainshaft on the 40 has the thrust washer with the little pin to index. The 46 mainshaft does not use that but 2 concerns is one second ger has the oil groove cut in it that goes against the rear splines (1st reverse slider splines) and the 46 2 gear did not. Second question besides the washer inside the 40 syn is there a way to make up about 15-20 thousands to the grove for the snap ring. Thanks
