NP435 Broken Split Lock Ring-no 2nd gear??

74 F100 4x4 w/np435.
Trans would grind but 2nd gear wouldn't engage.Popped top cover.Found that the 2 piece "split lock ring" between 2nd and 3rd broke.So when 1st tried engaging 2nd,it pushed too far forward.
Did a little research and found part B7t-7109a available through many nos suppliers.Looks like the right part.

Has anyone successfully replaced this with trans in truck?Looks like a PITA,but double.

2) B7T-7109-A required.

MILLER OBSOLETE PARTS in Binghamton NY has 18 = 607-722-5371.

FREESE MOTORS in Monticello IA has 148 = 319-465-3541.

GREEN SALES CO. in Cincinnati OH has 591 = 800-543-4959.

Thanks for the confirmation.I was just getting ready to order 2 from Green.

So the big question...anyone successfully installed this without pulling trans?Being a 2 piece,I think it can be done.
