Exclamation Hosed by Bently again!

The Bently manual has been pretty good most of the time, but on my tranny rebuild, it's gotten me twice on things that it should not have. First of all, 350-4 has an exploded view of the Pinion shaft and if you look at first and second gears, it has the pictures of them reversed. The placement of the gears is correct, but the images are transposed. The next thing was that it just barely mentions the placing the shifter selector rod in the gear housing, but doesnt show a picture or the orientation of the rod.

Now, I have to take the friggin gear housing off AGAIN and get the placement of this rod correct without any diagrams. I'm dissappointed that they scimped on these diagrams and would have helped a great deal in assembly had they included them. If you're rebuilding yours, ensure that you note these things or they will bite you too!
