I learned to shift to 2nd before reverse when I drove a 900. I heard something once about... I don't even know. Some elaborate reason why that particular thing would help in a 900, which may have been made up, but it did work. Never did break the habit.
As for the coupler, was it just missing nuts, or did you replace it with something from Lowes? Don't forget-- the reason they fall apart is that they are made to fall apart. They are meant to shear in an accident and keep the shifter rod from turning into a spear. Probably not a huge concern, but that's why I keep it stock, and if I do need to limp along with a disintegrating one I use nice breakable zip-ties.
