My initial success reveresed upon pulling the reverser apart and cleaning it out and lubing it with break in lube. Everything topside is lubed, graphited and shimmed to close tolerances, so I suspect I'm losing my plastic gear in the transmission. Anyone remember which speedometer gear goes with a 3.31 rear - 18 tooth??
