Re-install O-ring
« on: May 07, 2019, 07:42:54 AM »
If I forget something during a rebuild and want to go back. Can I uninstall and reinstall an o-ring or is that bad? In this case I wanted to remove the countershaft bearing retainer there is a little o-ring at the bottom corner.

Just wanted to clean out the transmission shafts a little better.

If it was new, you havent got the engine hot and is undamaged it should be fine.
