Houston we have Separation.......!!!
thanks for sharing, and the great photos.
i use a tiny film of real brake grease on those splines and tip. high temp brake grease sold at all counters for $1 in catchup pack. use only the least possible.
i see no notching here, the input shaft looks ok.... after wire brushed.
nice work !!!!!
noise can come from any bearing in the box.
if in the box (stethoscope proved)
its a constant mesh box. so all bearings must be good.
1 - 5.
luck the rebuild kits are pretty cheap $125, new bearings and synchro's...
the only hard part is the hidden ball bearing locks inside and measuring the magic gap first. before dismantling the box.
the fly pilot cant whine , with foot off clutch. it dont spin then.
the disc neither.
some PP Pressure plates can do this odd, get worn and rattle deal but hand inspected, you find any loose parts its bad..
i put duct tape on my box pilot shaft, end. and put it to a 1/2 drill motor. gently tightened.
spin it in call gears, then shift, and use a $5 stethoscope all over the case. to find noise.... (luck happens here... )
was the GL4 black as tar and gritty?
evidence, here, helps.
most boxes whine (bad) even in neutral. but not if the rear main shaft has bad bearings.(stops whine out of gear)
and 4th gear is no gear, it just a locked up main shaft end to end, so if it whines only in 4th that is odd.
pneumonia
so sorry for that, very very dangerous. that.... hope you mend well...
yes, the labor can get long.
having others to help , can shorten time and unstick things...
and the longer its together like that, the harder they come out. rust etc.
some have spline damaged or the horrid melted fly pilot bearing, even to the point of wrecking the trans input shift tip. (i have spare like that, and is useless)
