Re: Backlash in the Transaxle?
I was planning on tapping the pins 9/10th's of the way out of the planetary gear assembly and then I'd put the planetary gear assembly on top of the vcu and insert the dowel pins into the VCU holes. This would allow ~ 2 - 3 inches to get in there with a welding equipment and it would ensure that the holes were aligned correctly because the planetary gear assembly would be holding them in place. Once all the welding is done, all I'd have to do is tap the planetary gear assembly back into place.
Does this seem like it would work? I'm hoping to try it later on today, first on the bad vcu I have laying around and then if it works, on the good one.
