Question is if the person building you a833 together did something wrong? My : Of course you should first make sure, linkage alignement is correct. If you're under the car and look at the linkage while someone puts reverse in (with engine off) you can see if the lever will move a good way (pointing backwards as it was pointing forwards before). You can make sure if the lever at the tranny does not slip on the bolt that goes into the case. May be you will take the lever off for seeing if lever or bold are not "round". And of course make sure nut is tight. As a last test before moving the transmission out of the car you can disconnect linkage and drive shaft (take care: a certain amount of oil will come out!) and move reverse lever by hand and feel with the other hand at the output shaft (moving forward and backwards) if reverse "goes in". May be you can feel it with drive shaft in place? I recommend not to try to remove the side cover off the transmission while it is in the car - it would be very difficult to put it back with the forks in proper position.
After all these years having a 440 I realized that this means having an attitude... and a budget.

Good point about the rear. If the pinion nut/front bearing is loose it will walk back and bind.

Get your builder involved, he should be the expert and he can see the car, we cant. Good luck, let us know how it turns out.

if you bought this from Brewers...give him a call. They care about their customer service, and I'm sure he will be glad to talk this through with you, help you find out what is wrong and if it's on him, I know he'll take care of you.

Does your shifter have the bolts that limit the shifter throw? If so it is possible that the front in is in too far. JUst a thought. I would think if the shift forks were mixed up or wrong you would have forward gear shifter bind problem, but of course Brewer know a WHOLE LOT more than me.
