In the gearstick assembly outside the box, or inside?

Mine is slightly hard to get into reverse, but i thought all jimnys where like that.

Found this which might hep anyone rebuilding. The pic shows bearing numbers and locations in a cutaway view:

Inside the gearbox way to the bottom though reverse isn’t easy to go in most times I have to pull it in

Answer to Riccy about editing the Wiki page:

I have never personally encountered the error which you describe.

I suggest that you send a private message to forum owner, Martin and notify him of the issue. He should be able to quickly solve the issue while cooperating with you.

If you still have the text which you wrote, as a last resort you could send it to me and I can edit the article. But try to resolve the issue with Martin first.

Perhaps others are having the same issue as well when they try to edit the wiki and maybe that's the reason why rarely anyone except me edits it!

EDIT:
Riccy, after Martin solves the issue, you do not have to make the content which you write pretty if you don't know how to polish Wiki text and pictures. I can do that after you finish writing.

I put in one of those kits today . The ones from eBay for the r72 and it works great .. not a very tough task jus proper tools and soft hands .. I couldn’t have time take pics or video but it works well
