Have someone else do it.  To prevent self-machining, the ring and pinion
rivets need to be replaced by a bolt kit, and the pinion shaft retaining 'big-
head' rivets are replaced with a couple of circlips.  Both of these items
can be had from Adirondak or Virtual World.  While you're in there, replace
the 1st & 2nd gear syncros as those take more of a beating then any of
the others...well maybe 3rd too... :)
