There is what they call a gland nut that holds the flywheel to the crankshaft. This gland nut has a needle bearing in the center that supports the clutch end of the input shaft.
Well done DW… Progress has been made 👊 How’s the steering box? Any play? Mine’s got a bit and I’ve adjusted it too, might need a new one. More expense… hoorah 🥳 😭
Cheers Andy. I think the steering box is ok. I believe majority of the slop in the steering, was from the dead ball joints. Will find out in the near future. But box off the car, it feels tight in its movements.
I've had a suggestion from a colleague about being able to retap, which I'll try out first. Fingers crossed. Helicoil or insert is more complicated than it seems due to angle and tight space for drill.
So, what is your opinion on the shaft play in the transmission? Share your thoughts if you have any insight.

The wind has been crazy lately
Absolutely. I'm surprised more damage hasn't been caused.

That’s good news 👍
Re-tap, Helicoil, or tynesert?
