I'm sure you're pinion gear, etc is fine - the B44 has plenty of space around there for various designs of pinions.

Do you have the original tool set? The original tools include a long, "ball-ended" allen key that is useful for getting to the motor mount screws. Also, you'd do well to invest in a good set of imperial hex drivers. Look on ebay or put a want ad on here - you never know. But they're pretty much invaluable for doing any work on the car.

Also, the easiest way to adjust the screws that hold the servo to the blue blocks is to remove the blocks from the bottom. Yes, it means removing the under tray, but hey - that's only three screws.

Be sure to download the manual for the car, too - so you know that you're putting everything back together correctly. http://aedownloads.com/downloads/manuals/b44_manual.pdf

Good luck and you'll be enjoying the car soon!

Cheers,
Ty

hmm, perhaps this thread should be moved to the Associated section? How is that done?
