Road Toad Needle bearings!!!???

OK. I'm putting the second Road Toad tranny together and forgot where the long needle bearings go, on which shaft!

I'm thinking its the main shaft but can't remember exactly where! Is it between the main shaft (#1) & the idle gear collar (#2), or, between the idle gear collar (#2) & the kick idle gear (#3)? Or, do they go on the outside of the kick idle gear (#3), between the kick idle gear & the bearing? Help!!!!

The exploded parts pics don't show them, in the user manual or the on line parts pics! Thanks! ; D Victor

Greetings Victor

You will find the location on schematic " B " which shows the needle bearings go between the kick idle gear and the clutch pinion gear which is on the right crank shaft. You will need all 47 of those unless you get a caged bearing from the 02.

Tom! Thanks! So you're saying they go on the kick pinion gear on the surface shown in the photo below! That's why I couldn't remember! I even split the case again! :o Oh well! Thanks! ; D Victor
