This thread reminds me an issue I have had. When we rebuilt the tranny in my
BT7 we left off the reverse lock out "ball bearing" ??? I do not recall how
the lock out works, but my larger issue is this...
I will be removing my tranny this winter to either upgrade to a BJ8 clutch
or replace with a smitty conversion. So when the box is out can I access the
lock out bits and fix then without taking apart the whole unit?
TIA
