It's always amazing how a small job can spiral very quickly into a nightmare. This one very quickly changed. Nice cheap repair and a nice machine.

Don't you hate that sinking feeling when you know everything you just did has to be done again. Good one Frank

The struggle bus is real, especially working on equipment, I liked the "Pakistani Pump" reference, I watch those guys Pakistani Truck Repair, they do some crazy stuff lol

That's why I always try to have at least the parts diagrams that show the order of parts that go in. Especially on things like transmissions with a bunch of gears and shims and synchros and whatnot that go on a common shaft. It's easy to misorder stuff. Good job figuring it out Frank.
