[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 456204, member: 3278"] [size=5]To shed a bit more light on this...... The shift fork is what you were referring to as the lever. That has two points of contact with the clutch dog. They can be worn as well and be in need of replacement. Usually when a forward gear is required a pinion is included. You can always look at this and see if this holds true for your application. This is done to insure a proper wear pattern as the gears break in. Your parts therefore would include a complete seal kit, possible shift cradle and fork, forward gear and pinion if required and of course labor. Wear should be looked at up top at the shift lever as well. May need bushings. This will help insure a full shift travel and may have been the reason for the failure. After the gearcase repair is made then a proper shift adjustment at the lever should be done so you do not have a repeat failure. [/size] [/QUOTE]
