tips on gearbox assembly

Ok, i put my upgrades in and everything is in postion and fits, but i cant get the gearbox to completly close... the gears are jammed and do not spin aswell. Any tips on putting it together? Getting pretty frustrated.

Pop out the bushings from the upper side of the meachbox, put them on the gears, makes reassembly a fuckload easier and you don't have shims falling off either.

Changing your bushings will also require reshimming
