"Gears being timed/clocked, interesting! Must be something non-symmetrical on the same body (like a cam?), otherwise doesn't make sense to me. I'll have to think about that, perhaps look at an exploded view." Duragrouch
This is something I was taught way back when. IIRC some planet gears of some IGHs had timing pock marks on them for this reason. But the same boss would track which screw came out of which fitting as he restored old bikes too. I never went to this much effort with the SA AWs I have serviced and with the slight slop these hubs liked never had an issue with tolerances adding up too much and bind. Andy
