I finally got everything back in the tranny this weekend and I go to put on the tailhousing and no matter how I do it I can't figure out how the 5th/reverse brake tab is supposed to fit. After searching around I find there are actually two different kinds of tailhousings. Who ever had my tranny and broke the tailhousing put the older kind on and just snapped the tab off the 5th/reverse brake to close it up. That explains why reverse grated unless I eased it in real easy before I pulled the tranny.
Anyhow instead of finding another tailhousing I got out the angle grinder, die grinder and a few others. 10 minutes later my tailhousing looks much like the newer style. Got it all closed up.
While I had it apart I replaced the top cover with the pre 94 style that has a neutral switch since I have a 92 ECC that looks for it. I was missing one little pin for the neutral switch so I'll only get the tranny reinstalled later in the week.
Later
