The townsend reverse fix doesn't apply to NG900 (notably, there's no side cover on the trans...or dipstick...)
The NGs have a different claim to ill fame...the '94-'97 "no reverse" is usually the linkage suspension bushing. The cure is a new bushing (~$100 complete), or an newer style linkage (~$300 complete). Yes, in some cases, it's internal :( and that's big bux. Refurb units are running ~$1800/ea. Yikes.
But when you grind or pop out -- in any make, not just Saab -- you have to eliminate the linkage, motor mounts, and clutch as suspects before you rip apart the gearbox.
