Thanks to Northwest Transmission I got that silly gearbox assembled and functioning.  Thanks to help from my neighbor it popped right in.

 

Loaded it up with 140 weight GL4 and watched it go drip, drip, drip from the seam between tail end and the gear box.  Fortunately when I backed that section off I found the gasket had a corner folded over so unfolding that gave me the proper seal.

 

I did discover on the gearbox that I am missing the shift selector tension springs and the "detent hoops" from the left hand side.  I'll call Northwest AGAIN and hope that they have them.  Poor John there has been a great help.  

 

If they don't carry them - any suggestions?  I can bend them up myself if one of you can provide me a pattern.

 

Got my rear axle reinstalled along with the springs, shocks, torsion bar and torque ball spacers, too.

 

Plumbing the brakes and reinstalling the gas tank are next, followed by a drive around the block!!!!!
