ALL 5 new syncros, 2 new sliders, adjusted per specs...... What are the symptoms of this rebuild? VERY Hard to shift at first? Its not in a running car yet, but mounted under it. It shifts VERY hard, will this get better as everything gets worn in? How long does that take?
Oh forgot to meantion, lubed up gears before install and shifted tough but fine through all gears on bench. But installed so far and tried it with no oil in tranny yet. I am assuming it will get a little easier with oil, but WOW it is stiff thanks for your advice (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

You "lubed the gears"? What does that mean?
While we're at it, don't fall for the lure of the Swepco cult, unless you have some extra money you don't mind throwing away. Plain old GL5 will do the trick. Especially avoid ANY additive intended to make things "slicker", like MoSo2. The Cap'n |

The Cap'n Lubed the gears means I just put a little gear oil on them so when they were on my bench i could flip through the gears and make sure my adjustments were cool. I have Valvoline Gear synthetic oil is that cool? Oh no linkage, cableshift. It felt great before, i could litterally "feel"every worn dogtooth. Thats why i dove into it. I love it compared to stock. |
