This SURE is no MK3 gear linkage.

Ford changed it after summer '86. First MK4 Escorts still came with winged type (push-down reverse) linkages!

Front: late type linkage
Back: early type "winged" linkage:

84-85 Escorts already didn't have the winged type anymore, and still had the push down reverse.
