Building my B44 - help needed

[dayxwalker]

I am half way through my B44 and I have had no problems as such pretty easy ! But one thing that's bugging me is that the front gearbox seems a little tight ! The manual says to use 2 shims behind the shaft gear and 3 on one side of diff and 4 on the other ! Is this correct or should I take some out to free it up ? It's not really tight but tighter that I would like !
