Grubby - is there an easy way to tell if the crush sleeve has in fact been over tightened? I only know that the nut was loosened and re tightened. I don't think he had a breaker bar on it - just a torque wrench from what he showed me.

EDIT - Another question: Will the 3.54:1 gearset from my series 1 case swap into the newer series 2 case? Both are Salisbury units. If I'm going to have to pull the ring and pinion out, I'm considering the swap as its automatic to assume the taller ratio will work better with my .68 5th gear.
