Hey, love the video. My thoughts are to make a spring loaded dummy pin. Sort of like a toilet paper roll holder, with a machine screw (flat head) in the center to hold the lot together. Yes indeed it's more work but, it might make installation even easier!
Hi Lance. Do you know how I can download this whole series on the 135 in one go. I would like to use it as a step by step as I refurbish my 35 in a year or two. Paying for it isn't an issue. Cheers mate.
G Day Laurence, I use a free program called clip converter and download UA-cam videos in MP4 format and use it on a usb stick. They will them play on a smart TV.
You have saved quite a few people countless hours with that short shaft to assist in the alignment. Great Video Lance
Thanks Benson.
G Day Lance fitting that idler without a dummy shaft would be an almost impossible job. At least it’s starting to go back together now 😎👍👍👍
Hopefully gearbox will be done next weekend.
Excellent insider information, my frustration levels would have been pretty high before I figured that out.
G Day David, Yes I think there would be a lot of needles to retrieve.
Nicely done! That shaft you fabricated was a must.
G Day Bill, Yes I think I would spend a lot of time picking up needle bearings other wise.
Pretty slick Lance that would be a pain in the ass without the little dummy shaft.
G Day Joe, Yeah I cant imagine it going very well, I think I would be spending a lot of time picking up needles.
Nice Work Lance. I'm liking this mf135 series
It is a good little project.

Yeah why not, good idea.
Good one Lance it was a bit finicky I thought at one stage it was going to drop into the gear box! Regards John
G Day John, That would happen for sure, the camera and lights get in the way at times and make it a bit difficult.
Awesome gen as usual!
Thanks Deebo1812
Good show!
Thanks for stopping by.
super Video Bundy
Thanks Gunter.

Are extra needles included in the kit?
Yes 4 extras, often they make one kit to do a couple of different models so you get left overs.
What a shit of an idea.Why didn't they just fit a roller bearing with a housing?
G Day Mal, Who knows, must have been the thinking of the era. The old Holden 3 speeds were similar.
Fergy mal I would have to agree but I think you understated it somewhat 🤬
Needle bearings can take a higher pressure load for a small package space.
