Got my trans on the workbench since I'm in the middle of swapping the engine. Its a Saginaw 4-speed. Needed new seals on the shifter shafts. So I put the new seals in and reseal the side cover.

I also have a leak from the speedo output, so I go to pull that off so I can replace the o-ring. Wouldn't you know the speedo gear falls inside the tail of the trans!

Tried to fish it out and almost got it, but lost it and now I can't even see the sucker.

Walked away until tomorrow. Really don't want to have to pull the tail off for this.
