NOTE: Remove output gear stirrup and strap bolts.
All transaxles utilize a stirrup and retaining strap
that is attached to the output gear. The stirrup pre-
vents the output gear retaining bolt from turning
and backing out of the rear carrier. The strap is used
to hold the stirrup to the output gear and prevent
the stirrup retaining bolts from backing out.
