Another thing to watch out for on this set is the rubber coated wires. Some will tend to crumble and need to be replaced or covered. See this LINK
Go slow, take lots of pictures as you go along to use as references as you put things back together. It might be helpful to post pictures here from time to time as you ask questions. You can find instructions on how to post pics at this LINK.
