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? |

With a good band and teeth, I have never had issues using sliders in that shape. I advise the owner of their options, of course, but the $500 price tag tends to make most open to using good used parts.

Try calling Carquip and ask for Tom for a good used one or hell I have bought decent used trannies for $100.00 to get a few parts. |
