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? |

This is what I look for.....
1. Arrow pointing towards tips.... They should be distinctively sharp, not dull and not worn down at all and be without burrs. Any heat discoloration is cause for trash 2. Circle area should not be worn or it slides over the syncro too far before performing its function. You need a good one to see how far it moves before touching the syncro, it's not very far. This area typically wears a lot but may still look perfect. 3. The parallel lines.....There is a distinct shape to the inside of the slider. You need a good one to truly see how distinct it is. It should not show signs of wear. When #2 wears the shape is no longer distinct. 4. The shift fork should not be loose in the outside groove but it's the forks that typically wear if someone has been leaning on the shifter but I have seen the groove wear too. The area that slides over the dog teeth looks worn too me (between the teeth) but can't tell by the pic |
