Fit the rear cover / tail cone section – pass the long bolts all the way through the tail cone section, the intermediate plate to the main casing and tighten carefully. Align the 5th gear shifting mechanism with help of a stick / ball end on an Allen key.





Fit the shim and then the yoke before fitting the new nut.




Fill the gearbox with 1.5 litres of ATF.




If you are filling on the side – don't forget about the vent in the tail cone section!!!
