Fifth-Reverse Shift Fork Pads

Fig. 5:

The plastic shift fork pads are held in place by a combination of tension and a small locating tang. Three pads are used on the fork (Fig. 5).
The pads can be removed either by hand or with a narrow blade screwdriver. To remove the pads by hand, grasp each pad and tilt it out and off the fork. If the pads prove difficult to remove by hand, insert a screwdriver blade between the pad and fork and pry the pad off.
