Hi Andrew

Would not be to worried about the rust on the gears, both of my C60 transmission had rust and pitting, I just polished the gears, on my transmission they are a little more noisy. The C60S went about 20,000 miles before it broke a tooth. On all of my transmissions added a magnet to the drain plug.

Your truck is looking great, have enjoyed watching your build progress.

Cheers Phil
