    I will be waiting with Dino for the experts. Very strange to me! Twisted main shaft and or problem with the snap ring on that gear? Why does brake application in neutral affect that?

    Will know for sure monday, and i will update. If anyone else has any opinions, id be glad to hear em. My original thought was it felt like it was in the top, hopefully it is, cuz it would be alot lighter on the wallet.

    Update.... snap ring broke on main shaft allowing it to slide foward. Good call @BoxCarKidd

    Thanks for letting us know. Possibly the main shaft and counter shaft gears being on an angle push the shaft a little as the shaft speeds change with brake application?
    Best answer I have. If someone else tried to make me believe that they could be accused of smoking to much dope.
    Ha man: Got a light?
     
    spsauerland Thanks this.

    Yeah it makes sense why foward momentum of braking is the only time i felt it, main shaft sliding foward and hitting gears its not supposed to hit. Lol, even the transmission rebuilder didnt call that one, your in the wrong business for sure lol. Thanks for the intel, it softened the blow a lil.
     
    BoxCarKidd Thanks this.
