irregardless, the case will have to be split. unless, by chance, there is something hitting the very, very short shaft sticking out of the rear of the tranny. but that scenario is unlikely.

and believe me, from past experience, that trans is probly cooked. i grenaded every tooth off of first on the mainshaft, and then proceeded to shred the second gear countergear.

those trannies are weak. add in a non-driver, and they make big pieces into little ones.
