I've learned the hard way that gearboxes have lots of washers of various thicknesses in them in various places and even though it seems obvious when you take it apart, it's easy to leave one out, or put it in the wrong place when you put everything back together. The result is usually something too loose or too tight or grinding on something it shouldn't touch.
