Someone put some time into that paint, thats for sure.
kinda cool in its own way, hope you got some HP to back it up 😀
Jumping out of reverse is pretty common, couldn't tell you whats wrong with it though. would start by checking your gearbox mounts.

A good starting point is the gearshift bush,engine/transmission mounts and the stick adjustment then it gets heavy as if it is none of these it is inside the box.

Check the plastic shaft guide inside the tunnel just behind the gearstick.

I wouldn't really know if this could fix it or not, just that it is pretty lightweight and often forgotten since it is so hidden away. Still something to check if you do not know what state it's in.vlad01 wrote:no amount of bushes or adjustments fixed my jumping gears.cruiser wrote:Check the plastic shaft guide inside the tunnel just behind the gearstick.

How I found my box blew when it started jumping 1st. Back end jacked up in N and no hand brake, wheels would not turn by hand.
