FIFTH-REVERSE SHIFT FORK PADS
The plastic shift fork pads are held in place by a combination of tension and a small locating tang. Three pads are used on the fork (Fig. 135).
The pads can be removed either by hand or with a narrow blade screwdriver. To remove the pads by hand, grasp each pad and tilt it out and off the
fork. If the pads prove difficult to remove by hand, insert a screwdriver blade between the pad and fork and pry the pad off.
EXPANSION PLUG
The expansion plugs at the rear of the shift rail bores (Fig. 136) can be replaced if loose and/or leaking.
