01A questions

[David.Payne at brinksinc.com]

On closer inspection I see that the needle cages are different diameters
for the different gear locations.
It's not as simple, but I suppose you could weld the gear sets onto
position specific hubs.  This is what is done for second gear in the 901
and 915 Porsche boxes.
Thanks, Dave.
