 +====== 1965 XLCH Transmission Assembly ======
 +Article by scottericsonon of the XLForum ((https://​www.xlforum.net/​forum/​sportster-motorcycle-forum/​sportster-motorcycle-era-specific-and-model-specific/​ironhead-sportster-motorcycle-talk-1957-1985/​85677-transmission-assembly-tutorial-w-pics?​t=657134)) \\
  
 +A used transmission bought from Ebay was disassembled and the parts swapped over to the original trapdoor. \\
 +The used transmission had all Andrews gears as well as the mainshaft and countershaft. \\
 +I put new main and countershaft bearings in my trapdoor so I could reuse it so I know everything will line up with my case. \\

 +Empty trapdoor. \\
 +I should note that while it was empty, I DID punch out the countershaft oiler plug so I can set endplay later. \\

 +Mainshaft loaded in. You WILL have to pull it back apart again but I wanted to get the trans loaded just so I could see how everything fit together before I put the shift forks in. \\

 +(L) Countershaft in too. Spin it a couple times and slide all the gears around to see that everything operates free. \\
 +Then tear it back down and then start reassembly WITH the shifter forks. \\
 +(R) Slip your C/S fork around it's gear (3rd) and get the finger roller in the cam. \\

 +
 +(L) Then get your mainshaft fork in position and slip it's gear (2nd) in from the side. \\
 +(R) Slip your mainshaft into it's home thru 2nd and clutch gears and put low back on the countershaft not forgetting your washers (74 and up have 2). \\
 +Then go ahead and slide your fork shaft in and run her thru the gears a handful of times. \\

 +Here is the transmission completely assembled to measure clearances on the gears. \\

 +
 +After you get it all together, run it back and forth thru the gears a handfull of times. \\
 +This is to get everything settled into where it's supposed to be (plus it's neat to see how everything works together) \\
 +Put it in neutral to measure your clearances. \\
 +(R) Measure spacing between C/S low and C/S 3rd like this. You want .038"​-.058"​ here. \\

 +
 +(L) You adjust clearance with these washers. \\
 +(R) Then measure between the dogs on C/S 3rd the face of C/S 2nd like this. \\
 +You want .038"​-.058"​ here as well. \\

 +\\
 +
 +(L) Then check between M/S 2nd and M/S clutch gear .043"​-.083"​ of clearance. \\
 +(R) M/S 2nd and M/S 3rd .043"​-.083"​ here as well. \\

 +Checking C/S clearance. I have .006" \\
 +Don't mind my redneck setup. I'm just a poor bastard trying to do shit on a budget. \\

 +(L) Checking the M/S endplay. I have .006" \\
 +(R) Grab your shift shaft and slide it into its home making sure to have it level so it will go into it's pocket on the trans. \\
