Abstract: A shifting assembly for a vehicular transmission includes a shift rail having a yoke coupled thereto. A lever may be provided having portions forming an L-shaped slot. The yoke may engage the lever through the slot. The shift rail may be configured to shift the transmission into a forward gear ratio and a reverse gear ratio. The shift rail may be configured to translate along a primary axis in a first direction and in an opposite second direction. A shift fork may be coupled to the shift rail, which is configured to cause the transmission to shift into a forward gear ratio when the shift rail is translated in the first direction to a forward gear engagement position. The yoke may be configured to cause the transmission to shift into a reverse gear ratio when the shift rail is translated in the second direction to a reverse gear engagement position.

Abstract: A detent assembly for selectively engaging a gear in a transmission of a motor vehicle is provided. The detent assembly includes a lever having a first groove and a second groove formed therein. The lever is configured to selectively engage a gear. A ball is provided, which is configured to selectively seat in the first groove, the further, to selectively seat in the second groove. A plate is configured to selectively bias the ball into the first groove, and the plate is further configured to selectively bias the ball into the second groove.
