It would be very beneficial if all those who have performed this swapping procedure would contribute by expanding the article and making it into a proper guide (for example, like this wiki guide .

Perhaps think about rebuilding the box you have? if the gears are ok then its probably worth doing.

I opend my box today everything looks fine
It looks to be opened before and the reverse gear plastic shimm was in the wrong place but it still gives a little trouble to go into 1st gear but it surely does work better
