I looked at the (5) 3/4 shift forks and they all have seen better days.

I bought a set of these forks from Ray a little over a year ago. They are fine but I needed to file a fair amount casting flash away from the bosses that the selector rods pass through. There was enough casting flash that the forks just touched each other in one position such that one gear was hard to select, I have forgotten which one. This was not a big deal because I checked all of the motions before I buttoned the box up. It would have been a big problem if I didn't check everything before putting the box back in the car. I mentioned this to Ray and he was going to work with his supplier to get the casting flash cleaned up. The fork in Gary's photo looks to be free of casting flash.
