(10) Install geartrain and shift rails into the clutch
housing. Lower the geartrain and rails into the hous-
ing slowly while guiding input shaft through input
shaft seal. Avoid any binds on the shift rails, forks
and synchros as the rails enter their bushings.
CAUTION: Do not damage input shaft seal with the
input shaft splines.
(11) With the geartrain approximately 1/4 in. from
the clutch housing, remove Holding Tool 8242 from
