I'll look to see if we have some of that lying around somewhere as well. Thanks for the suggestion.

We'd been planning on using the same system of retaining the pinions as on the kit transmissions. The team is a bit averse to using Loctite on anything because of the large amount of plastic we typically have on the machine. Instead, we use lock nuts.
