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? |

Ask for Tom and tell him we talked. He's a pretty upfront guy and treated me REAL good when I built my custom geared 915. We spent a bunch of time working out gear ratios. Those that have been in my car know the gearing turned out near perfect thanks to Tom's help. I also sold him several trannies. I wanted a mid section of a 915 that I could cut a large section out of for shift fork testing and he sent me one for free! He was fair on both the buying and selling. My experience anyway and nothing but nice things to say.....Hopefully he treats you guys as well.
