Reverse shift problem

I've been told the operating lever (on the transmission) is the correct lever for the A-body A-833. The slot is not canted but is straight (long edge parallel to the long edge of the lever), NOT like the pictures of the 'B' body levers.

Something else is amiss.

I asked Brewer's about buying a shorter lever. They were kind enough to ask some questions about the setup that I'm getting answers to. Good folks to be generous with their time to help out. I'm hoping I will be able to provide the information to arrive at the correct answer.

It's embarrassing to have neglected the situation for such a long time that I cannot even recall for sure how it came about...exactly what parts replacement/change caused it.

Workin' on it! :banghead:
