I bought a new BBSHD, successfully installed and tested it on my bike. Then I opted to pull off the gear cover to check/ add grease. The big gear came up off the the free-wheel ratchet pawls. Now I can't get it to settle back down over the pawls so that the cover will go all the way on. It's not hung up on the alignment-pegs of the case. The pawls are preventing the big gear from dropping in to place.
I've read some posts and watched some videos on the subject. Some people have more difficulty than others getting the big gear over the pawls. People advise patiently jiggling and sometimes turning the shaft backwards to allow the pawls to fold in, out of the way. I still can't get it to go on.
The bike is complete, springtime is here. I'm open to any suggestions.
