A855 - 5 Speed

They have been fantastic, but the exact same issue remains, need a more drastic solution.

Here is the short version:

I just finished getting the trans in and everything bolted up.

Took it for a test drive, popped out of 4th.
Popped out a second time but much more violently.

Same as when I first received the trans, stayed in 4th sometimes, other times I could see the shifter moving and watch it pop out.
Held it in gear for a while, no change.

It seems certain spots in 4th it will stay, the other 50% of the time it pops out no matter what.
Even when it stays I can push the clutch in, put it back in 4th, pops out.

It's freezing cold here and the forecast is not looking any better. I need to he able to move this car around over the winter, plus I can't have it up on stands blown apart taking up space.

I've spent money on the trans, shipping twice, paint, and more importantly a new 18 spline clutch with pressure plate and new flywheel.

I can't just swap my 4 speed back, and I have no desire to do so.

I see only one option- a brand new trans with all the fancy springs and whatever else, delivered to my door.
