Conclusion

Posted 12-05-2008 at 02:27 PM by Mike Frye
Well, last week Adam G. came down and helped me put everything back together.
I ended up doing just the selector spring, the reverse lockout spring and the front seal (plus the mod to change the rear shift coupler from an allen-head set screw to a hex head screw.

The car runs and shifts perfectly, way better than it ever has.

I still have some other issues to deal with, but this one is solved.

Diff removed. But wait, can't I just replace the spring?

So I got that figured out and have been trying to work out solutions to two issues.

1. How to get the shift lever to return to the 2/3 plane when the 'old style' spring returns it to the 4/5 plane.
