Last night I replaced a bad bearing and all of the gears in my gearbox and the gearbox is tight (doesn't spin freely) and it gets tighter the more I tighten the screws. This has happened to me before and I can't figure out the rhyme or reason. Does anyone have any experience solving this issue. Thanks in advance.
I had the same problem. In my case, the motor plate was warped, so I replaced it, and that fixed the problem. However, not being a very good driver, I crash, and the new plate eventually tweaked. So, now I put a drop of blue loctite in the holes, finger tight the bottom 2 mounting bolts, and tighten the top just enough, so the trans doesn't bind.
