I had to remove the input shaft plate on the steering box to replace the seal that was leaking badly. I didn't know I would soon have ball bearings cascading out all over the workbench and floor. Now my friend with 30 years as a mechanic & a repair shop owner can't get it back together. Hayne's Manual not helpful. It seems when it's assembled, it's too long to get the input shaft plate on (?). Any suggestions?

Glyn, the ***** in my PAS box may have been different colours at one time, but how ever Jaguar coloured them, it was pretty much gone.
I measured them at random until I found a small one and locked the micrometer.
The big ones would not fit then _ I sorted them with 2 tuna cans marked big and small.
There is a manual box that uses ***** too, so waiting on Marks' answer.
