I have a technical question. Last Year I had my primary apart I noticed a clutch hub wobble. Since I had it apart recently putting a 84 tooth ring gear on I checked the run out on the main shaft. I noticed it was out .005 to .10. I called a transmission re-builder in Ohio and explained what I had found asking him to quote rebuilding my tranny and putting a Andrews main shaft in. He told me to save my money due to the fact that almost all of them are out of tolerance. It shifts fine and the clutch works perfectly and probably has been like that since it was new. Have you run across this before? I already purchased a 5 speed with 1000 miles on it and it is sitting on my shelf in the garage.
Just some input would be helpful before I tear it all apart or do you think I should wait till I really need to.
Thanks

I know you've heard if it aint broke... cant say I'm surprised that they run a little loose/off spec.
You can have it cheap. You can have it fast. You can have high quality. PICK ANY 2....

If I read that correctlly, you are stating that the extreme tolerancce is .10 or meaning one tenth of an inch. Did you mis-type that meaning .01?
To my way of thinking one-tenth is a large tolerance and at its full out-of-round throw it has to be binding on something.
Do you also have "end-shake"? If so, I'd find a guy who knows what he's doing.
