3. Install the low and reverse shift shaft into transmis-
sion case. Do not damage the oil seal. Align the
neutral detent of shift shaft cam with interlock
opening in case and install retainer pin.
4. Install the interlock sleeve in the case and install
one interlock ball, the interlock spring and inter-
lock pin.
5. Enter the second and high shift shaft into the trans-
mission case and install the other interlock ball in
the interlock sleeve and while compressing the
spring, slide the second and high shift shaft toward
the center of the case into its correct position and
install retaining pin.
6. Rotate either shift shaft into any in-gear position
and with one end of the interlock sleeve contacting
on e of the cams on either shift shaft, use a feeler
gauge and measure the clearance between the op-
posite end of the interlock sleeve and the cam of
the other shift shaft, Figure 17. This clearance
should be from .001" to .007". If the clearance is
not within these limits remove the shifter shafts
and replace the sleeve with one of the proper length.
