For anyone who's built it, just want to check I haven't wrecked elgearboxo!! Can't use the plastic slipper shaft spacer as the gearbox is thinner, so I shunned about 0.6mm at the far end the move the whole assembly out, then used a 0.5mm spacer to stop the float in the shaft, does that sound about right??

Hi Dave
Yes, what you've done sounds about right.
I put the shim behind the layshaft bearing to move the whole thing out.
Mine seems fine.
