We had the same issue with a 89 gearbox and not only flipped the bracket, but it was bent about 8 degrees rearward as well. That is what pushes the idler back a bit further. Also, the front motor mount was very loose, so I clamped an exhaust rubber bracket in between the U clamp and the mount. That really helped to keep the general operation of the gear selector. I noticed the passenger side motor mount was shot as well, so hopes are that the new passenger side mount, the front trapped, and the 8 degree bend will hold reverse like it's supposed to.
