Popping out of reverse

[Jim Burrill]

Hi Folks,
Put the carrier in reverse, and back up, all is fine. Start to turn and the extra revs seem to be too much for the girl. The shifter will pop out of reverse and come to neutral.

This has been doing this since the original rebuild when I had a specialist shop overhaul the tranny and driveline. Have just lived with it.

Time to get it sorted out though.

I have seen some shifters where they have removed some metal from the slot so that the shift lever goes just a little farther forward. Tried this and seemed to help a bit, but there is not a lot of room left (aside from not being the proper way to fix it,)

Any ideas?

Cheers
