Did a bit more work today on the transmission. On the one I’m rebuilding the interlock plate on the underside of the top piece was badly worn. This I believe was all as a result of the loose fulcrum pin. Anyway I looked over my spare transmission and the plate although a bit rusty was in very good condition. I took it all apart today pressing out the shifter fork shafts. I sandblasted the case only to discover a crack in the cast housing. I’m not sure, but I may have done that while pressing out the shafts on the press. I’ve since sheared off the 4 rivets holding the plate in place. And will be using the good plate on my good upper housing. This part was replaceable per the manual. However I’ve been unable to locate a NOS one. So I’ll be using the good one.

I also have two different lengths of shifters. I’m not too sure what is the most correct. The manual lists two different ones.

The riveting went very well using the press. The good shifter interlock plate is now securely in place in the good housing.
Yesterday the NOS generator armature arrived in the mail. So this morning it was reassembly time on the generator. All went well. My only hang up was I forgot to take some pictures of how the wiring goes together.

Finally got all the NOS transmission parts I needed. Involved a trip to the states and a vehicle inspection by three CBSA officers.
