Fury Tempest T/R Gearbox Assembly

[Ozmodeller Snr]

Guys

I am in the process of rebuilding the Tempest and and have a few questions regarding T/R GB assy:

The manual states that the output shaft is an assembly, unfortunately I have to assemble it from piece parts, what are the critical factors regarding the distance between the bearings?

How critical is the shim between the rear bearing and the gear, ie should it be a close press fit between the two?

Without stretching the bounds of international cooperation, what would be the best way of re-assembling the output shat to ensure correct meshing of the T/R gears?

Thanks for your time and regards

Peter

If this is the closed tailbox, then the best instructions I've seen and use without any issues are these over on RR:

Works like a charm.

Thanks for that but there are some differences in that the gear on the output shaft is on the opposite end with a shim between the bearing and the gear. The shim replaces the circlip although the output shaft
#0541-8 still has the groove for the circlip.

Thanks
