Default TLT Tranny

Today I installed a Junfac Tracer conversion on my otherwise Mostly stock TLT crawler. After the rebuild I discovered the Tranny seems to have come disengaged. I have never had a problem with my otherwise reliable little crawler till today, so I am sure it is a Newbie mistake. any thoughts or input will be appreciated.

Default Belt

My belt is tight and almost brand new. I would switch to a pede tranny but I was informed it won't fit in the Junfac kit. There is actually a small click and the Tranny disengages.

Oh then check all the screw and set screw in there there is one that goes on the top shaft that might be loose enough to let the top belt pully slip on the shaft ??

Angry thanks bro

That was it, the little set screw came loose on the top shaft. boy I feel like a bit of a dummy now. I can do restorations on 40+ yeah old cars but I miss something like that.
