Reverse lockout solenoid? Need two hands to get it into reverse

[KDR83]

I have a feeling the reverse lockout solenoid is bad on my 98 GTS, it takes two hands to get the car into reverse or a whole bunch of effort with one hand. What is the part number for a reverse lockout solenoid and how do I get to it to replace it? Transmission shifts perfectly smooth and even the action of putting into reverse is fine, it just feels like there is something trying to stop me from putting it in reverse.

Yes, it's as simple as dropping the pan under the trans and removing two bolts holding the lockout solenoid in place. Done in under an hour including jacking the car up.
