Thanks OJ. Is that all it does< help with neutral selection?
Bryanj:
Nope only locates the drum sideways with roller in groove, all the neutral and gearchange gubbins id behind the clutch, the should be a service bulletin on here somewhere(Ashs dropbox or alladins cave) that shows the mod and how to do it
Oddjob:
The ball bearing was there to aid neutral selection Bryan, that's why there is a recess in it for the ball to drop into, it's in the exact place it needs to be for neutral. They replaced it with a collar which as you say helps stop the drum sliding around and improved the selectors inside the clutch area. The upgrade kit had all the selector mechanism as well as the new bolt for the top IIRC.
The old selector system just wasn't good enough to allow an easy selection of neutral, the yanks complained like hell and got it changed as they had the K0 way before us.

Thanks guys. Even with the stop screw in place there seems to be some sideways movement of the drum is this normal?
Oddjob:
Does the stop screw still have its little collar fitted?
