    I meant to post this when I did it, but FYI, the recesses on the shift rods on the D-18 are deep enough you can actually install two seals each per shift rod. The only thing you need to make sure of is that you face them both the same way and more importantly, you need to polish the shift rods until you can see yourself in them. Otherwise, you just mess up the seals you just installed. When you are pushing the rods through the seals during assembly, make sure you put some kind of light grease on the shafts to provide lubrication while they are sliding through the seals. Otherwise, you run the chance of tearing them up.
