Why do I even bother?......
Today, I tore down the trans. Damn, it was not good. My brand new 1st gear some how welded itsellf to the 1st gear sleeve, which accounted for the being locked in gear situation. So, the casualties from saturdays 1/2 mi. ride: 1st gear, 1st gear sleve, rear bearing, mainshaft(this i'm not sure about, I'll have to get all the trashed stuff pressed off somehow to see if it survived), and frt bearing retainer. I found one on craigslist for $350, which isn't bad, but I'd want to rebuild it(another $112). The problem being I don't have that much scratch kicking around after just sinking $350 into it already..... I fear that at this point the first two events are of the schedule. This really bums me out. Why does this crap allways happen when I'm least able to sucessfully handle the issue....
