Removed the backing plate from the stock basket and got the starter gear removed. Went to put it into the Rekluse basket, but doesn’t seem to match and didn’t want to force it in. I froze the starter gear and heated the basket with a torch. Any advice?  Thanks!1A4D8AF2-C8EA-4B0E-AF70-21528D604916

Why does the basket have 8-slots but the starter gear is splined all the way around?  Like 16 splines?

I emailed them waiting on a reply. I figured I’d ask here as well. Doesn’t seem correct to me.

Beats me!  Seems weird how the splines are. I checked the part number stamped into the basket and its the correct one.  Haven't received a reply from Rekluse, I'll give them a call later in the week.
