Transmission Assembly Photos

This was the bearing in one of the three transmissions that I bought. I needed the casing from this tranny but when the bearing exploded the countershaft gears chewed into the casing. It ripped out 2 bearing retainers and a huge amount of aluminum. The entire transmission  was coated in aluminum including the needle bearings inside the gear assembly. Needless to say that I didn't use anything from this tranny. IF YOU HEAR GRINDING IN YOUR TRANNY, DON'T KEEP GOING!

 

On with the reassembly..
