Started getting a lot of the internal bits cleaned up yesterday just to make less of a mess while reassembling. At the rate I’m going, maybe I’ll get this back together by next year

Edited on 3/31/23 to add:

Started a smidge of reassembly after dinner. A 1.25” pvc pipe works great to gently persuade the new input shaft bearing on with a little help from the Tonya Harding 3000.

Also got the tail shaft bushing installed with a little bit of help from the slip yoke. Didn’t damage the bushing and the yoke spins freely
