Assembly of my T56 for my 98 Firebird after rebuild.

To include assembly of components and box ready to go back inside the car, installation of new bearings, shimming of mainshaft, countershaft, & countershaft extension.

I'm not a professional. If you see something I did wrong, please let me know so I can fix it. This was my first time ever rebuilding any transmission ever. All my research came from other YouTube videos and the manual from Tremec.

Was already semi-rebuilt before I opened it up, but the previous rebuilder (Spartan LSX Performance, stay away from them) forgot to install one of the snap ring retainers for the output bearing so it was starting to grenade itself since the bearing was no longer aligned in the race. I inspected the gears, keys and bearings for wear. I replaced all bearings except for the countershaft as those appeared fine. Countershaft extension 5/6 gears/cluster I replaced.
