^Amc49, thanks for the info. Are you saying the clutch pack needs to be JUST SNUG, or JUST CONTACTING the snap ring when the snap ring is against the outside of the grove? And are you saying the reason for the "lifting" operation is to find the average of high and low around the ring?

I read the bits about the gear preload measurements... I'm either going to have to buy a nice expensive depth gauge, or I might take the case halves to a trans shop for that part. The last might be my best bet, because then I can ask some review questions.
