First is gone ... grinds going in, pops out when I let the clutch out.
I've done lots of linkage adjustments, replacements, etc. etc. Followed the Pelican Tech article to open the tranny and check out the gears. This is what I see... dog tooth: slider: I'm assuming I'll be replacing the syncro ring, and the dog tooth gear. And the slider is still ok. Yes? No? Any recommendations on where to pick up the parts? |

No cork, only paper. They come in various sizes from .009" to .022". Generally you can make the right thickness with the gaskets provided in the kit as there are 3 of them. I have plenty of case to intermediate plate gaskets, but no intermediate plate to tail cone gaskets as those get used up in every build and you can not buy them separately. IF you MUST pull the tail cone, AND you dont want to buy a whole seal kit to get the gasket for it, THEN you CAN use some sealant. It is not a precision fit so the dimension is not a big deal. Having the paper gasket separating in front of the intermediate plate is not a big deal. Just reassemble things and it should not leak, UNLESS it was assembled with goop before. If goop was used you might as well pull the stack and replace the seals after cleaning the surfaces. Otherwise, you risk having leaks, and pinion misalignment.
