So I went back under the car tonight doing some clean-up and I thought I'd feel around the bottom of the trans for any metal, and what do you know...... the ball!!

So for the heck of it, I assembled the reverse detent mechanism and the reverse arm now has the detents .... now I have to wonder why the ball was at the bottom of the trans...





more than likely someone pulled or installed the detent housing incorrectly , it has to go in and come out in a certain order or the ball ends up in the bottom of the case .
