Diff ratio is 2.89:1 from memory..
No green dot on the shifter, just P-R-N-D-2-1...
Like this..
I'm going to try and explain this as well as I possibly can.... Although it doesn't seem like it could be the problem, it may be worth considering..?
Under the shifter bezel I can see a vertically mounted metal plate with 'steps' that lock the shifter into position, nothing strange about that.. It makes sense...
But those steps that determine the shifter position, relative to the bezel are a bit funny...
"1" is a high step and "2" is slightly lower so simply pushing the shifter forward will put it on "2", again, makes sense...
(I don't actually have to press the button to change from 1->2, all I have to do is push the shifter)
Pushing the shifter forward again SHOULD put it into "D", which is the lowest step..... (Same thing as 1->2, don't have to press the button...)
But, "N" shares that same low step.. So it is easy to accidentally put it into Neutral, but pulling the shifter back against the step (beside "D") does nothing. It's still in Neutral, despite the shifter being beside "D"..
The only forward gears I have to choose from are where the shifter is on either "1" or "2"..
It doesn't bother me so much that the shifter isn't quite aligned properly, I'm used to having "2" as Drive, but even if "2" is actually "D" it still doesn't seem to be going through the gears properly..
It's 67 unless it's the wrong box it will be a 35
I have a reciept from a SA wrecker that says the previous owner replaced the engine, trans and diff...
Pre-Xflow 250ci I6, Borg Warner auto (don't think it names the actual model) and a Borg Warner Diff.
Reciept says the g-box and diff came from an XY while the motor was from an XB..
Try backing the kick down off a bit , it might be too tight .
I'll have another look at the kick down for sure, but it looked fine when I put it all back together, judging by the photos pre-disassembly..
