Re: Gearbox dog gear problem (WCP DS WCD)
That spacing is incorrect. This is a common problem and is caused by incorrect spacing/tightening of the nut in the shifter coupler. Did you make sure the nut is in the exact spot shown in the manual?

You can verify this problem by shifting the coupler by hand and seeing if the gear on the opposite side moves from its original spot.
