I was looking at a transmission I have tore down today. To me it looks like the reverse sprockets are number 40 chain. If this is the case can I put good 40 chain in there and still have reverse? I was wondering if this would work or if I would end up blowing up the case with a broken  chain?

I THINK THAT CHAIN IS #41. IVE ALWAYS HAVE RUN REVERSE. I LIKE TO BACKUP AND NOT PUSH. AFTER ALL THE YEARS OF RUNING IT, I ONLY BLEW 1 REVERSE CHAIN. IT LOCKED THE TRANNY UP BUT DIDNT HURT THE CASSES.

So did you just replace the original chain in there with new Cain then?

So it should hold up on a mod-x - r then? I want to have reverse and did you use just oil in the tranny or did you use oil grease combo?

15W40 ROTELLA MOTOR  OIL.  I PUT IN A VENT AND A SITE TUBE TO SEE THE OIL LEVEL. ALL MY TRANNYS ARE BUILT THIS WAY. YOU SHOULDNT HURT A THING. I WOULD RECOMEND PUTTING A COLLAR OVER THE INPUT SNOUT SO YOU DONT BREAK THE CASE. IVE SEEN THAT HAPPEN ON A MOD X R

My tranny now has a vent but no site glass. Do you happen to have a picture of how you do the site glass or site tube you can post grubby?
