This one however is not a "reproduction" : https://www.partzilla.com/product/honda/11394-HM7-003 We are gathering information still and continue to fix the little issues it has. Not ready to do the other larger issue just yet.

Update, Pulled the front case, did not have to pull the front driveshaft or spacer case. When the shift shaft come forward a 1/2 inch the shift pawl slipped out of the bushing on the shaft arm, I used a 2 ft slim blade screw driver to line up the bushing and pushed the shaft back in and found the locking ring had slid back on the shaft when I was trying to get the bearing off the shaft, slid that back to the groove Shifts like it should , a couple hours and its back together. For reference when doing the gears and bearings inside the shift cover when doing a shift motor do not let that shift shaft move forward. I hope this helps someone in the future and a Big thank you to jeepwm69 for your help.

Hi -- the wires with just the insulation covering just chew off -- use Permatex Liquid Electrical Tape -- I don't like using those heat shrink tubes with solder in them -- because the wires have to be perfectly clean -- solder the connections tape them good -or use crimped connectors and liquid tape the ends.

time wise ?..it would be better ( to me anyway ) to just replace the wire harness.

So, zooming in on this pic on my computer at work, much easier to see. You see the yellow/blue wire that I spliced using one of those heat shrink tubes with solder in the center. That was a wire that was completely gnawed in two by a rat, which is why the wheeler was originally brought to me. I fixed three such wires, wheeler ran, and I returned it to the woman. A couple of weeks later she called me back, wheeler was dead again. I discovered blown ignition fuse, and when I replaced the fuse, the coil smoked and hissed, and I realized the coil wire had melted to and was shorted on the exhaust. I have not found any more wires gnawed in two, and the woman moved the wheeler from a barn to her carport when I returned it to her the first time. So should I snip. strip, and reconnect the wires that were gnawed but not broken to make sure they have a good connection? Replace the whole harness?
