tonight i finally got everything re-assembled and went for a very short road test.
wow it acts like a different trans. altogether
1-2, 2-3 nice and firm
3-4 i have to wait and see. not enough road, late with heavy rain.
*******IMPORTANT******
anyone doing this repair should buy the seal that holds the plastic bushing in place. #006 997 73 47 . it wasnt clear to me when i read the posts. it cost me 4 bucks, and held me back a day.
i had thought that the seal mentioned was the o-ring seal and if i removed/replaced it, i was in for trouble.
the other thing was that on my 123 i didnt have to remove the header pipe from the engine. diesel giant removed his but his was on a 126 chassis.
thanks to diesel giant for the great write up on this repair, and for pointing out his mistake on the push rod, so i wouldnt mess it up as well.
