After doing a little more searching I found a video you may find helpful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwg232nf_e8
Toward the end of the video I was finally able to get a look at one end the end of shift collar. The 'key' for the collar is actually one of the dogs that is oversize (extended) more than the rest so that it slides into the keyway on the lead screw. I'm guessing you'll find that dog has been sheared off most likely. Personally I would still check the pin on the drive pinion though. Even though it feels secure it could still be cracked or partially sheared.
