Also a messed up bearing would allow the shifting sleeve to move up and start rubbing the shift fork. However, it is hard to tell from the pictures which happened first the bearing or the tooth.

i took the transmission gear set to a professional, and he said the output shaft bearing had seized, and this in turn scored my output shaft which is why 2nd gear blew up because it wasn't meshing right.
dammit, i should have changed the output shaft bearing when i did the input shaft bearing!! my fault
oh well, the 1k mile tranny will be here tommorrow. should be able throw the quaife in there and do some more tests

i definately want to make videos
