The LU must be between gears at this point, its locked and wont move more than 1/2 turn either direction. Turning it isn't an option unless i get that pin back in and do some more shifting..

Time to break out the brute force. Thanks for all the suggestions

Note,
Look carefully the **** rod is exposed you can use a needle nose pliers to press it down or up to shift it into gears, Also I use the are to swing the rod during installation...

I was able to get it down with wedges. Just took a lot of persuasion, it was really rusted on there! It's in the shop now getting new seals.

Anti-seize for assembly, from now own , till you die!.
