Got the tranny back in the bike but lots still to do
before I take it for a test run. Enrichener plungers are
clearly sticking, need to install the Alternator kit, etc.
Thanks to the Gregs and Paul for tips so far. -tom

Actually, I did check it, from several sources,
including Greg's and they don't show anything between the
worm drive and that output shaft nut. Maybe I have the
ball in the wrong place - I have it "on top" of the worm
drive (looking down with the tranny on its nose) - is
that right?

Tom,

Going from memory (not to good at the moment) I believe
there is a thick washer/spacer of sorts that goes on top
of the drive gear. The seal surrounds it and then the
star washer and nut combo go on top of that. Did you
check you parts book? If you don't have one check on Greg
Benders website for the download version.

Thanks for the confirm, Paul. I did in fact order an
additional 27mm nut so I'm good to go there. Any
thoughts
on the output shaft nut issue - is there a washer there
or
not?

Thanks, -tom

Yes you can use the same nut. It's available from MG
Cycle. I did this on my
74 and it works great. I also got a new star washer
for
 at the same time.

While putting tranny back together ('74 Eldo) I notice
that the output shaft nut (at the rear) seems to ride
directly on top of the speedo worm ball - is this
really
 normal - or should there be some kind of washer
between
 the nut and speedo worm? There wasn't one when I
disassembled it, but based on what else I've found
missing
from the PO - I don't trust that.

Also, w/o that "special" tool, I ground pegs on a
socket
 to use for putting the input hub nut on - I'm
skeptical
 I'm getting it tight enough. Can I use the same nut
that
 you use on the output shaft (27mm) - does it have
enough
 bearing surface? I'd really like to be able to put
some
 firmer torque on that input hub.

Thanks, -tom
