missing starter clutch

[jdmae92]

I recently got a 77 gs550 as a winter project. The PO said when he got it it didnt have a starter gear so he just kick started it. I took the stator cover off and the whole starter clutch/gear assembly is missing. I found a used starter clutch on ebay (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/77-78...QQcmdZViewItem) and i dont know if i need anything else. Can anyone who has replaced it before tell me everything i need to put it on? Pictures would also be helpful. Thanks

Ok I got the part I needed, it was just the smaller gears (#s 1,2,3 in the diagram). My question is which way does it go in? Does the smaller diameter gear go on the outside or does it go on the inside?

The smaller gear goes on the outside. Don't forget the washer (#3).
