ok folks. Original problem I was experiencing was going to third gear. The slightest roll of the throttle it would load and unload in and out of gear. Shift forks were done, pretty bad shape probably from when the double bearing failed originally and just didnt catch the wear on the forks. ordered new ones and also found that the shift fork rod was very slightly bent. Not good. While I'm in there I wanted to go ahead and change 3rd gear main shaft and 2nd gear main shaft. The side teeth are in tact but very slightly rounded but i can still see the mill marks on them. I'm wondering if i even need to change them or would I be creating another can of worms by not. I probably will just in case. Does anyone here know if they are available anywhere else other than Baker? Baker's price is $ 80.00 for the 3rd gear M/S and $120.00 for the 2nd gear M/S.There is a B order for the 3rd main shaft gear, shifter pawl, and Primary inspection cover. Thanks fellers....
