    thank you so much for your help

    the GXP chains are really low miles

    and my clutches SHOULD be fine... i would hope, considering this trans only has 7k original miles on it. lol

    so now im excited... motor is almost out

    thanks!

    ok, motor and trans are out, the input shaft broke PERFECTLY clean along the o ring groove

    now the input shaft i got off my forum member does not have the o rings on it, where can i get rings for this shaft?

    can i use stock ones from a stock input shaft?

    and while im replacing the shaft and chains, is there anything else i will need to replace while im in there? side cover gasket should be fine i hear?


    and what about torque specs?


    thanks!

    The seals on the input shaft are teflon and require special installation and resizing tools to properly install and resize the seals so you can put the shaft in the trans without damaging the seals. You can try to get around this but it can be tricky to do. The oring groove section just uses a regular rubber type oring. I have plenty of the seals either or for the input shafts if you need them or I could install them for you, or you could even try a local trans shop and cross your fingers they dont hit you hard cost wise. You will need new channel plate and valve body gaskets to replace the input shaft and the rest you should be save, just take a peak at things the best you can and check the condition before going back together. Torque specs are on the Info page of my website.

    if you were to install these seals for me, how much would you charge?

    and also, how is somebody expected to install these seals when purchasing this input shaft?

    i know u can choose the option from zzp for an extra $10

    the shaft is getting shipped to me today, so ill have it later on in the week, and i need my car ASAP, and im also kinda broke

    any ideas?

    I also charge $10 to install new seals on the input shaft and shipping USPS Priority should be $6 and take 2 days to most areas. Intense only sells their input shafts with the rings installed. ZZP gives you the option to save a few $$$ as most guys are installing the input shaft with a rebuild or having a rebuilder install the shaft. New seals are included in a rebuild kit and should be replaced anyways so often you dont need the seals already installed on the input shaft.
