Dear All,

Success! Using photos of the spider and spider gears taken during disassembly, I was able to figure out the original arrangement of gears and spider in the carrier. Putting everything back together in this arrangement solved the problem! The planetary gear system now spins quite easily in the carrier!

Dave and ineffabill,

I highlighted the scratches in the gears to show the sorts of marks that might let me deduce how the gears were originally placed in the carrier, not because I am worried about them.


Thank you for your wonderful assistance.

Tom

p.s. I have not safety wired the fasteners yet. I will next time in the garage.
