Refit the top and reverse clutch hub washer and the
Torrington needle thrust bearing into position with

Ensure that the top and reverse clutch friction
plates are free to drop before refitting the gear
train assembly into the transmission. Correctly
position the second, third, and reverse gear bands
in the case and refit the gear train, using hand
pressure only to push it into position. Quick rota-
tion
of
the input gear will assist in engaging the
top and reverse clutch friction plates. When
correctly reassembled the dowel bolt will engage
easily in the freewheel support (Fig.
Fa.ll).
