Reaction Sun Shell.
Without it you lose reverse, 2nd, and 4th gears.
How not to break it, keep the strian in reverse to a minimum.
I goosed teh gas peddle to get up my drvieway. I started to roll forward and goosed it to go back up. My drive way rises about 6 ' in 20'. Not getting up it in 2" of snow without front wheel drive or 4x4.

Get a Beast Sun Shell and never worry about it again.

I stripped out the teeth on mine. First pic is the sun shell.
2nd pic of the teeth.
3rd pic you can see where the teeth are missing.
I stripped mine out backing up mmy driveway.
Rebuilt the tranny for about $500. #350 in parts, $100 to a tranny pro to verify my work, and $50 in chemicals.

If not you will need to swap the output shaft grom your 4x4 into the 2wdr case. That requires taking htem both completely apart.
