Anyone have a good picture of the 1st gear shift fork on a 915 tranny. Also can you access the fork adjustment from the side cover.

All internal settings on a 915 can only be made during trans assembly. The "side cover" is for the ring gear/diff assembly.

I thought there was a side cover to adjust fifth and reverse

I defer to Pete as I am sure that he has had plenty of these apart. I know the cover you are talking about, it is on the opposite side from the filler plug (high up on right side of car/transmission section held on by four nuts, mine has a very minor leak). I don't remember a cover on the side of the differential section. When my transmission locked itself out of fifth, I pulled that cover off and was unable to determine any way to fix a shifting problem merely by removing that cover. All the pictures that I can find do not show that side of the transmission. I had the transmission rebuilt since there was already 150K miles on it and 70K on the second clutch.
