I am having trouble with reverse it pops out  especially it you give it gas it wasn't as bad before but it now pops out quicker and easier what could it be?

     Stenny, it is more than likely a bad bearing, problem with the shifter or the internal fork for reverse.  It is more than likely worn and needs replacing.

#2: There is no such thing as impossible, it just takes longer.

So you think that I can have it fixed  without taking the tranny out?

OP-

Are you sure you have the 465?

The reason I ask is because the 465's RPO code was M20

Did you see the date on the original post? The rpo he posted lists 4 forward gear manual trans.

???

Looks like someone has run this thread through the laundry.

Why am I quoted in this thread even though I have no post in it.

Other than my post there is no RPO code in this thread.

Yes, I am pretty sure I have the SM465. Its short and fat, has the PTO covers on the sides. Shift pattern:

L 2
1 3 R

Also, my pop-out problem has not gotten any worse in the 8k miles my truck has traveled since I got it. They have not been easy miles, these transmissions are tough!
