: Hi Dan! How ya doin'?
:
: Best idea I've come up with is to have
: a shop grind off the GT6 shaft you
: installed and then cut and bore out
: another GT6 shaft that I'll give them.
: Without your original drawings, I don't
: think I have any other choice - bummer.
:
: Luckily I have two GT6 gear boxes in
: stock, so I'll still have a fall-back
: no matter what happens. I won't get to
: the project for another month or so;
: I'll get some more news out then
:
: Thanks for checking-up on me!
:
: Ciao - Jim

: Jim- Did you try to get to get the
: first one that came out too long apart
: yet? I've been wondering if you had any
: luck with it.
:
: Too bad you are located so far away,
: I'd be glad to help you do the work in
: my shop.

: All good stuff. Thanks guys. I'm sure
: the rest will fall into place when I
: actually get to bust the case open.
: Right now I'm just looking at diagrams.
: Doesn't sound too bad though. Finding
: a machinist to do the cutting,
: grinding, boring and interference fit
: on the hybrid shaft will be the
: challenge.

: Ciao! - Jim

: It has been about 20 years since I
: replaced parts in our GT6 gearbox. I
: remember doing exactly as Carter said
: regarding a temporary short shaft to
: keep the needle bearings in place. I
: was not smart enough to look for
: something at the hardware store and
: instead had the machinist at work make
: me a rod of the correct diameter. The
: pipe is a much easier and better
: solution.
