OK part of the "WHY ?", is that there is more than "one problem".
Fix the obvious one, the next one becomes "obvious" etc.,etc., etc., Ad Infinitum, ad Nauseum.
It is getting better, it will actually coast down a steep grade, but it looks like I might have a wheel center that' just a bit off, there's a lot of "wobble" in the main engines motion, that I don't have in the lead engine. I have to remember that I am working with "leftover parts", so there are bound to be a few setbacks here and there.
I'm still waiting on the new gearboxes, but there's enough to keep me busy during the wait. I need the gearboxes, to position the drive shaft, and then figure out just where, and at what angle to mount the motor in the tender.

We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
