I put the spacer/pin in the stick to help align everything, but it will be removed after all shims plates are on stick.
I installed plates/shims in reverse order of how they come off. Once installed on stick with the button I sprayed a little more lube.
I noticed my case had spread apart a bit from me prying the plate out earlier, so I put it in a vise and gently squeezed back together.
Remove the spacer and slid as an assembly in the case. Once plates, shims n stick were in case, I used screwdriver to help align the holes for spacer install. Remember to install spacer/pin from the Hurst side. I put the bolt thru the spacer and held in place with a zip-tie.
I used another long screwdriver to align the shift levers. Weird the reverse lever didnt have a hole for the screwdriver, but I was able to align them. Im not sure why this is done, but it is what I have seen/read, so I did the same.
