Alright I split the case this morning and found one of the gears is grinding on the inside of the case and I think that's where it is binding at. Is there a washer that needs to go in between there. I have looked at the parts and I don't see anything. Something is just off enough. Could it be the case cause to bend the shaft seems unreasonable
either that or somtimes the thrust washers have little tangs that fit into a specific spot, if they are not seated it could cause an interference issue.
