Interesting, makes sense, since 4th gear and reverse were in the worst shape when it was still in operation....4th was always questionable on that trans though, it did not have a "firm" engagement....it'd require letting off the throttle to get it to engage.
The new trans firmly shifts into each gear, its awesome.
