    They will drop in any gear, but I find it is easier to have it in forward when you take it apart, as you know where you are when going back together. You can also spin the prop to move the drive shaft splines to aid alignment. It is just a matter of getting the water tube, shift shaft and drive shaft all aligned at the same time. Really not that big of a deal.
