[Spridgets] Noisy 1st gear

[Glen Byrns]

Usually the layshaft is galled and the layshaft roller bearings are toast. 
That's most of the characteristic whine.  Add in a new pilotshaft  and 
tailshaft bearing, new synchros, and a cursory look at the other mainshaft 
roller bearings will finish a "good enough" rebuild.
