Hey guys, finally got my parts back and started putting the engine together. I’m stumped at this tranny instal with the shift forks and drum:
-I’ve double checked the correct orientation of the forks
-Checked the tranny shafts are put together correct
The problem I’m having is when it’s all together with the cases it shifts 2-3 times then jams up. I’ve tried so many configurations, but do you think it’s just cause the engine isn’t running?
I’m mostly confused on where the shift fork pins go into the shift drum, I’ve also tried starting with the shift star in neutral
Anyone who’s been in the bottom end have some advice?
It’s all layed our pretty simple just can’t figure out if I’m missing a step?

The Shop
I’ve put everything in with the half open and get same results. Was there any indication on where direction the shift drum is or doesn’t matter?
I’m just wondering if it’s not shifting because the engine isn’t running and I’m over thinking it.
I have some good photos before I disassembled, I’m really leaning on the side of it not working because the engine isn’t spinning.
Pit Row
It really will only go together 1 way. I’m gonna button her up and finish the build. Thanks for all the suggestions!
I had to just step away and look at it with a clear head.
