Subject: Re: G9 gearbox
For the benefit of others : - Adam, I have spoke to you but you should be ok to get the rear housing out. However, mine was very difficult. It needed a bit of heat on the aluminium housing and gentle prising with a knife edge tapped into the gap.
If you can face it, go further and inspect the bush hidden between the input shaft and the output shaft. If this does not get much lubrication it will, I think then cause the 2 shafts to "wobble" leading to possible breakage of the helical teeth.
