Fun Gearbox Info

The remains of the layshaft came out of the gearbox last night, and the 2nd and 3rd gears are completely stripped -- no teeth on either one (and their gums are in terrible shape to boot). The pinion shaft is welded to the front bearing, but if I remove the bearing from the case, then I may still be able to salvage the case.

I'm going to try to concentrate on the rest of the car tonight instead. The gearbox won't be going anywhere, and I shouldn't need the case for a long time.
