Over-run clutches

Feel free to add what might have caused this. I am pretty sure it was mainly due to the sprag failure....

if the sprag broke and you were using the manual ranges to move the car this is the result of using the overrrun disks for this purpose.

Yeah, I beat the crap out it to finish it. I've had the tranny out for 2 months and work on it an hour here and there. No hurry to get it done as long as it's done before GIR is open.
