Install the nylon inserts (44) and selector arm plates (45) in the shift forks (46).
Coat the edges with sealant and install the shift rail plug (43).
Coat the shift rail (37) and shift rail bores with petroleum jelly and insert the shift rail in the cover. Insert the rail until the end is flush with the inside edge of the cover.
Position the first-second gear shift fork (39) in the cover with the fork offset facing the rear of the oover and insert the shift rail through the fork.
NOTE: The first-second gear shift fork is the larger of the two forks.
Position the selector arm and C-shaped interlock plate (38) in the cover and insert the shift rail (37) through the arm. The widest part of the interlock plate must face away from the cover, and the selector arm roll pin must face downward and toward the rear of the cover.
Position the third-fourth gear shift fork (40) in the cover with the fork offset facing the rear of the cover. The third-fourth gear shift fork selector arm plate must be positioned under the firstsecond gear shift fork selector plate.
Insert the shift rail (37) through the third-fourth gear shift fork (40) and into the shift rail front bore in the cover.
Rotate the shift rail (37) until the selector arm plate (36) at the forward end of the rail faces away from (but parallel with) the cover.
Align the roll pin holes in the selector arm (38) and shift rail and install the roll pin. Ensure that the roll pin is installed flush with the surface of the selector arm to prevent the pin from contacting the selector arm plates during shifts.
Install the 0-ring (42) in the groove in the shift rail oil seal.
