Monday I mated my gearbox to the OD, filled it with oil and went to spin it up and test it. Both the gearbox and the OD moved easily by hand but, once mated, are very stiff. I think I just burnt up my Milwaukee Magnum drill in the attempt. Last time I did this, the same drill labored a little to get the oil pressure up in the OD -- but nothing like this Monday.
Now it's all full of expensive Red Line oil, and I am in a quandary what to do. I feel like I need to look in between the gearbox and OD again. Can the gearbox be stood up on the bell housing with a full charge of oil in it, or is there a vent that the oil will run out of?
