The continuing clutch saga...

[bugger-off]

To make a long story short: My trans was locked in gear so I cannot install the new clutch pack. I couldn't make anything happen with the old "screwdriver in the fill hole" trick, so, yeah. Trans and axles (since it is a swing set-up) come out. Really, good times.

I get the nose cone off and the hockey stick is sitting ON TOP of the center trans shaft/rod. I believe that is the first/second gear shaft? I was hoping that would be the case and that there possibly isn't any other issue.

Am I right? I have all the shafts at an even height and, as long as I put the hockey stick in correctly, I should be good to go?

Thanks in advance, this thing is really kicking my ass. Hopefully I can drive it SOME this summer.

Put the nose cone back on and make sure you can move between the gears w/it not installed. You should be able to do that by grabbing the hockey stick end w/plyers, perhaps wrap decent amount of electrical tape around where you grab it, so as not to gouge the surface. That's what I've done in the past.
