re: input shaft removal
Are you sure that they interchange.
To get the input out you have to pull the countershaft out so the gears
underneath can drop down. When you do that, all the rollers fall out.

You CAN'T remove input shafts like you are trying. It don't work that way.
More likely they are not the same inside(gear teeth count) and won't work anyway(even if you got them apart).
As long as the length of the shafts are the same, along with pilot bearing diameter...then all you need to change is the clutch disc to match the spline count.
Just so you know...that little ring you removed off the front bearing keeps the bearing from going IN the case any farther. It registers against the face of case and then the retainer bolts tight against it to hold bearing stationary.

Bump'n along.
