Apparantly there are other books too, the big green bible?,
but airing your thoughts on here seems to be a good way of seeing if stuff might work - ie people who have done it themselves at home without a full workshop in real conditions and time restraints. Manuals tend to be based on 1 strip down of 1 model of the vehicle, and what the author thinks is obvious and so not needed in the book is vital info for someone who knows very little about the subject.
That sounds a lot for a reverse gear (if i got my exchange rate correct), try ebay, or salvage one from a donor gear box. Anyone noticed how donor vehicles seem to be far cheaper than the individual parts?
Check out Snaggers link for some parts sourcing, or thee are others about- Craddocks, or Paddocks.
Good luck and keep us posted.
