Ring gear on wrong?

[45MBJeep]

I've just removed the flywheel. Does the ring gear look as though it's been installed backwards?

[Wolfman]

It's backward.
The taper on the teeth should be on the starter drive side.

Simple fix tho, takes less than 2minutes to unshrink and reinstall using an acetylene torch.

Thanks Wolfman & Ben

Today's job was to replace the ring gear as it had a few chewed teeth and I wanted to make sure I put the new one on correctly. It's not fitted and the motor is back in.

Thanks again, Lee.

Flywheel timing marks correctly oriented?
It's 50-50 it can be on 180* out.

Not all Flywheels are marked.
