Any hints on Sonett III gearbox teardown?

Alert me when someone posts in this thread:
Hello,
Have a customer car with a noisy gearbox and what looks like bearing cage chunks in the fluid. I am planning on pulling the gearbox apart to investigate in the next several weeks when I have time. Being that driving season is basically over here in Pittsburgh until spring I have time to do it in my spare time to keep the cost down for the customer. It appears I have most of the tools shown in the service manual and Jack Lawrence seems to have what I should need. Just hoping to get any hints on any issues to look for in there, or pitfalls to avoid from someone that has been there. Thanx, Bernie
