Slide the set ring on the main shaft and set the cotters in their groove. Slide the 23T 3rd gear counter shaft on and place the set ring.

Put the other gears on and you should have something like this.

Tom;
Are you saying that the shift shaft assembly can be replaced without splitting the cases? I recently acquired a 65 CL77 and some previous owner had cut part of the splined end of the shaft off. I thought about replacing it but didn't want to split the cases. If it can be done by just pulling the clutch side off the engine that is wonderful.

Yes, If you are talking about the shaft that your shift pedal attached to it can be replaced without splitting the cases.

After soda blasting and washing my cases, I started to get the trans back in. First I put my shift drum oil seal in then put the forks in and slid the drum down and through the forks. Install your shift fork guide pins and rollers in the orientation I showed previously along with your lock washer. Check to make sure your shift forks travel smoothly in the drum. Fold the lock tabs up to the sides of the hex top 9in the photo I have not done that yet).

I next put in the trans. First put in the main shaft assy, lining up the fork with its gear and the bearings with their set rings. Next put in the counter shaft assy making sure to line up your bushings with the dowels. Don't let your bushing slide too much or you risk dumping your roller bearings.
