My 727 was in a sorry state when I disassembled it, and it had at some point been incorrectly assembled, for instance the thrust washer was missing between the input and output shafts. In the enclosed pic you can see how the inner race of the sprag has been grinding in the housing. I'm not sure what's causing this? What is it that locks the output shaft in a certain position...the output shaft ball bearing, or something else? What would be the best way to correct this?

Well, it's a bit more difficult over here, but buying a used 727 might be an option... With a bit of luck I might even get one where the case is not damaged...but it's a gamble.
Obviously it's not designed to have the inner race grinding on the case, I wonder what sets the position of the output shaft in the case? Is it the ball bearing with the snap rings on the output shaft, one snap ring on each side. And the outer race is locked to the extension housing with another snap ring? If that is the case, then maybe I could shave off a bit of the extension housing mating surface to the case and make sure the inner race bottoms out on the shaft, and not on the case?
