I haven't seen a step by step about this, but when you do it , make a step by step with pics for others. and to answer your question about the ball spring and bolt, the answer to that is in your other thread about this

Yes, that gasket. There is also a bearing on the inward side of the input shaft, but more then likely it should be fine. Rember, you must take out the set screw/spring and ball bearing (for the shifter shaft) out first. A short flat headed screw driver will work, then a magnet for the spring and ball bearing. If you lucky, the side case will come off with the input shaft and f/r gear assy intacked. Then just remove the "spirrel clip" holding on the idler gear, then tap out the old breang and seal and install the new one's. Good luck.

Count the number of turns of the screwdriver. There's some pictures here...

Don't know how to remove the inside bearing. I don't think they go bad often. The bearing in the case, yes.
