Hey all, I've just gotten my 1.8L motor going (quite an achievement, its been sitting for 4-5 years I'd say) but I have a problem with the drivetrain. When I pulled the motor out ages ago, the tailshaft didn't seperate from the gearbox very easily, and pulled what its connected to out a bit. Now that its all back together, it isn't engaging the diff, just making grinding noises.
What I need to know is weather or not I can just drop the tailshaft down, put that spring back (I forgot to put it back) and jam the thing after the tailshaft back into the diff? Or am I looking at serious money to fix (this is on my bush basher btw)
Cheers

Yeah, I worked it out for myself in the end (no-one replied fast enough). Anyway, she goes good now so just a matter of time before the motor is in my road gem
