- Install the gear position guide on the shaft. Press the shaft until the middle groove is located centrally on the opening in the gear position guide.
- Install the dual interlock on the shaft and install a NEW rollpin.
- Install the tension spring taut with the spring ends on each side of the pin.
- Install the lockring. Do not place the preload washer on until the gear-changing mechanism has been fitted in the gear box.
- If any shift forks, shift shafts, or shift shaft blocks were disassembled, reassemble the shift shafts by driving new retaining pins into the shift forks or shift shaft blocks.
- Install all shift shafts partially onto the shift control bracket assembly. Partial insertion of the shift shafts provide considerable end play during the installation of the gear shift mechanism.
- Install the gear position mechanism with the spring ends on each side of the guide lug and the dual interlock in the driver groove.
- While installing the gear shift mechanism, simultaneously align the following:
- Set the shift linkage assembly upright to encourage components to settle into position.
- Align the shift forks with synchronizer sleeves and install the shift linkage to the clutch housing case.
Important: While assembling shafts, ensure that the shift shaft block notches line up.
Important: Ensure that the gear position mechanism engages the shift blocks.
