Plain Jane OEM nothing to see here rebuild

[JustJeff]

This is my first rebuild of any kind, so at least so far I'm keeping the rebuild OEM. Not doing any porting or other modifications. Though if I found some used FD stationary gears I'd do that and modify the e-shaft oil jets. I need to replace my stat gear bearings, so if I found some used FD gears in good shape I'd consider that modification



Apex seal corner broke on front rotor


It spun around a couple of times, took out the housing and rotor




Had a hard time getting pics of apex groove that got damaged

Something to think about...

The front FD3S stat gear is machined differently than the FC3S stat gears.
You might need to change out all the "front guts" in the oil cover to FD3S parts - thrust bearing plates x2, Torrington bearings x2, spacer.
