Looking at the manual it looks like the boss on that gear should face the other way.

Thats what I'm thinking as I'm not confident 4th is finding its way all the way home. I'm getting all th egears but 4th is not how I expect it to be. i thought I'd just have another go through th egears before trying th ecases together later. It just sit where I'd like it. I'll swap it round and have a look.
I've jhalf a dozen new circlips in a pot ready for just this sort of pre-buttonning the casestogether panic ;)

Nice one Ken, cheers mate. Kepp yer posted.

Thats it apart on the bench, I think we're right about flipping it, the diagram isnt very clear for a bear with very little brain mate ;D

Just so I wont ever be worrying, is that the right configuration for these two washer/shims? from what I can make out from the fiche, its this way round but am I mis reading it? Just dotting my 'i's' and crossing the 't's' so to speak.

Ive looked at the fiche for ages and I'm pretty sure its that way

Okay, so thats a shot of the box in 5th gear and things look a lot straighter and its made the box a bit tighter if you know what i mean, it feels a bit more connected ifthat makes sense..........

Does this help? I was surprised to find this as I’m not one for record photos.

Yes it does I shall go armed with that when I go out later. I had a reaonable evening there last night and happy to say that the cases are provisionarily dry fitted with the gear mech in place (THANKS BRYAN).

I'm gonna try the gears all together wiht everythng in and have a play. I think I've managed to get it right but not tighten everything down until I'm sure. That inkling of doubt is still there so playing it safe but that helps heaps Phil,mcheers mate that s treat

Oh, yes. Looks like a third world operating theatre….very nice.

Looks like an excellent finish on the cases by the way.
