    I thought about that being a possibility too. After assembling it dry, the gear fit felt as good or better than most high mileage gearcases I have been into. It has the big, nearly straight cut gears in it and I think it will be OK without shimming it. I’ll try running it some and if it seems like it will need a shim, I’ll go back in and shim the excess lash out of the gears. I’ll pay extra attention to it Garry and thanks for the heads up.
