Looks like you really lucked out on that transmission. From the picture the gears look to be almost new. Pretty good for? a tranny that's possibly 80 years old.

Actually the transmission I took out had nice gears also.? If it wasn?t for the completely sheared off tooth on the transition gear it also was in great shape.? I will have to keep an eye out for some replacement parts or another trany with a higher gear problem.

Maybe they just built things to last back in the days before some MBA came up with the ?Use it once?, throw it away? business strategy.

The weather Gods were good to me this weekend and the temperature here in Virginia was very mild.? I continued work on the drive train.? ?I installed the transmission that I cleaned up last weekend.
