We just went to buddy’s boneyard and found a different bottom end. Checked the impeller and changed the gear oil and tried again

First time it was hitting neutral so hard it ripped the bottom shift rod right out of the brass piece that joins the upper and lower rod. We put a new brass piece on and different bottom end. Rods don’t come apart now but it still jumps out of F and into N
I have a 73 Johnson 9.5. Same issues. I just bought a new used bottom end and the same issues. Forward pops out into neutral when going. Odd that it would happen on 2 different bottom ends
