You follow the path
fitting into an infinite pattern.

Yours to manipulate, to destroy and rebuild.

Now, in the quantum moment
before the closure
when all become one.

One moment left.
One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.

I got it figured out... I'm talking about the little plastic bushing that sits on the bottom of the push lever and pivots around. I got the new one installed by placing it against the concrete, then tapping the other end of the shift lever with a rubber mallet. Popped right on and it's solid.

The problem is, now I've replaced the shifter bushings but the bastard still pops out of reverse!

Do the other gears shift smoothly/better/stay in now that you've done the bushings?

edit: Nevermind, watched the video. "Forward is fine." :dance:

Very nice! Of course you'll be getting a well-staged camera phone picture, right?

Right?

^^^ This guy knows what's up. The long-nose R200 is pretty much the same thing across cars, just make sure you swap your driveshaft input flange and axles onto the new diff.
They're not *that* complicated to rebuild, but a rear end is a huge pain to drop out of the car; you definitely need a jack and some stands. I know exactly what high-pitched whirr you're talking about, I think.

If you do end up rebuilding it yourself, it's a good time to replace all those worn bushings in the car-rear end that cause the butt sag you talked about. Fire is fun, if you do.
