Commando Gear box question

Mofosheee · Jun 28, 2022

Hello Forum

I received this gear box in a million pieces. Two gear box questions please.......

1) while reassembling this Commando gearbox, I noticed that there was not a washer on the index plunger #16 to gear box shell.
Seems to me that one should be there.
2) Did I miss installing spacer #29. Pic of my assembled gearbox attached. I don't remember installing it.

About the washer , for me you can put one (fiber or dowty) just for potential oil leak , tho in the perfect sense that decrrease the spring tension a bit but .......
I can see the spacer n°29 in your pic , so ..........

Last pic shows #29 spacer/sleeve for oil seal in place!

Only the 850 Mk3 plunger housing has a washer (and O-ring) as standard. You can use sealant on the thread.
