I have got most of the way through this rebuild with out much problem, but I am having trouble putting the mainshaft assembly back into the transmission. The instructions are not much help, they just say "Install mainshaft assembly into transmission." a lot easier said than done. I remember taking it out as an assembly and it did not exactly pop right out, but I did end up comming out of the case. Apparently you are suppose to put the out put end of the main shaft out through the rear mainshaft bearing hole and the front end is supposed to then drop down into the case. When doing this I seem to be about a 1/2" from being able to drop the front end of main shaft into the case. I tried putting it in the case front end first but that was worse. Anyone have any tips on how to do this? I email Novak this question, but I am guessing it will Monday before I get a reply. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
