* The original detent plate was upgraded in 1999 (P/N 33656-90A) to provide a more certain engagement of the gears and to make the neutral location easier to find. It is backward compatible.

* Due to the above mentioned shifter drum pin issue, the OEM spring clip (P/N 11019) is often replaced with an E-clip and a thin washer in order to help the detent plate keep those pins in place.((http://xlforum.net/forums/showthread.php?t=1675146)) \\ | * Due to the above mentioned shifter drum pin issue, the OEM spring clip (P/N 11019) is often replaced with an E-clip and a thin washer in order to help the detent plate keep those pins in place.((http://xlforum.net/forums/showthread.php?t=1675146)) \\ | ||

To increase the tightness of the oil seal (as often suggested by SportsterPaul), after installing the rubber washer, you might install one or two o-rings to take up the gap between the shift lever and the washer. The o-rings do not seal against leaking oil but, instead, they put additional pressure on the oil seal in the primary cover cavity, which does help to seal against leaks. | To increase the tightness of the oil seal (as often suggested by SportsterPaul), after installing the rubber washer, you might install one or two o-rings to take up the gap between the shift lever and the washer.

* Another idea to install the detent plate, is to thread the end of the shaft, then use a nut with blue Loctite.
