W56 Transmission Assembly Help!

[UteRunner]

After replacing the input bearing, seals, and gaskets, I reassembled everything but I don't seem to have something lined up properly. I tried rowing through the gears before I threw it back in the truck and no joy. I can't remember if I had it in gear or neutral when I took it apart. I'm assuming it has to do with the gears and gear selector shaft alignment. Yes, I've searched.

This is what I'm concerned about.

I'm not sure what style you have of the W 56 some have an inspection port Just open the top inspection port line it up and you're done

You didn't mention whether you have a tsrm for the w series transmission or not, but the assembly is relatively detailed in a few of the tsrms I have.

If you need it, I can send you the manual trans section from one of the many I have here.

Figured it out. The lower shift fork notch is reverse and it has gotten pushed forward. Once I moved it in line with the other fork it all worked perfectly. Transmission is back in and working just fine.
