Bearing failure. The main-shaft to moving forward and backwards enough to pop the shift ring out of gear.

 

Which bring the question, whats causing it? and would they have rebuilt it with a old or bad bearing? hmmmmm...

I know they will reuse parts that fall into spec, but I really think the bearings should have been new.

That is the only reason it will kick out of gear is the main shaft is moving fore and aft as you decelerate. 

 

During all my transmission work I ask for all the old parts during the rebuild. This way I can account for what work was done and see possibly the damaged parts.

 

When I broke the mainshaft I had the same problem of kicking out of gear. Mainshaft was moving. When I ate 5th gear it worked fine. Shaft was solid not moving.
