Did you by any chance separate the drive shaft by sliding it off the
splines? If you did it is possible to get the drive shaft out of phase.
To be correct there are two small pointers on the fixed and sliding part
that need to be lined up. If the drive shaft is out of phase it will
give an irregular drive as it rotates which is possibly what you are
feeling in the overdrive.
