I finally got my temporary mounting solution and the floor mostly built so I can pull the whole "mock-up" powertrain out this weekend and start building it. And see whats really causing the issue, maybe should have started the thread now instead of a month ago :lol:
That would be awesome. Mine is under the rig in present state without room to disassemble and resemble (body crossmember is in the way of pulling rear case half).
I read a post from back in like 2007 or 8 on a clubhouse forum that a guy had the same issue and just ran without the snap ring...
Mocking up my dual cases, and the splitcase (87 unit, 38mm idler shaft) doesn't want to seat against the adapter properly, like the index isn't big enough.
There's a big snap ring around the sealed bearing on the adapter, I think that's causing the issue?
Is the gap in the photos clear?
