Hi folks, putting my case halves back together and we cannot seem to get our shift forks into the grooves to reassemble the case. Honda manual says shifting into first gear eases reassembly but honestly I can't tell what gear we are in. Gear lever is really hard to push or pull. Any help is appreciated
 
I just realized, it seems we may have 'dropped' the gears. The entire gear assembly, transmission, everything stayed in the top half of the case when we lifted it up. How badly did we screw up and what is the fix for this?
 
I have split one of these cases and reassembled, did it with the engine supported upside down. You need to get your engine safely held upside down before you can reinsert the dropped parts.
We have the engine upside down currently, all of the gears are in the top half of the case. Think this is part of the reason we are having such a pain getting the shift forks in place because we are struggling to shift like the manual says to do
