I recently bought a 13B project with a Ross.  And I am trying to

is my question: what is the problem with the Ross and what is the
solution.  Thanks,  Jerry Hey

Good question Jerry. The main problem is the thrust from the helical
gear pressing on the 13B e-shaft and then on the Mazda needle roller
thrust bearing. You need to add a thrust bearing in there somehow.
Chuck Harburt has a friend up in the Seattle area that did his for him.
Here is a picture of Tracy's solution.
