Output Shaft

NOTE: Not all of the output shaft gear and synchro components are a one-way fit. Some gear and synchro components can be installed backwards. To avoid reassembly problems, mark the gears, clutch gears, synchro hubs, and sleeves for reference during teardown. Use paint or a scriber for marking purposes. Then stack the geartrain parts in order of removal. This practice will help avoid incorrect assembly.
