    I had removed the overdrive on the Series III and using that special tool,
    got the nut off the mainshaft along with the tab washer.

    I obtained a new tab washer from one of the best known suppliers but
    yesterday, when I went to install it, none of the tabs lined up with the
    tabs on the nut. Well, one will always line up, the second one is halfway
    lined up and the third is completely blocked.

    I'll admit that this is my first time in this area of the LR but it seems
    wrong that the tabs don't all line up. Did the vendor send me a wrong tab
    washer? Is it that simple?!

    (Nice to be back after a couple of months... note new e-mail address...
    agologize in advance if the format is screwy/will correct next time.)

    Cheers,
