For those that haven,t seen one broken 1 to 5 are gears note 3rd stripped, 6 is the intermediate bearing i'm trying to beef up to support the gearset, 7 is the main shaft i think is flexing causing the 3rd gear to break, the highest loaded gear is 1st right next to the steel plate but they don,t seem to be a problem, if the plate flexed 1st would be the one to let go, check the size of the lay shaft dont think thats a problem, if it was a bearing problem they would have to have a heap of play which would be screaming in 1 2 3 5 considering the case hardening is only a few thou thick you would think it would be through this a long time before you stripped a gear, any thoughts?
