As far as the sticky CIM pinions I can say that we observed that on one pinion from the KOP this year. It was not very bad and wore in quickly running the transmission on a bench. I can see how a small variation here would quickly cause a problem.

There is a large washer on that shaft that is not in the cad file. It goes between the large bearing and large output gear.
