This is a pic of my first gear slider. The dog teeth seem ok. What I am wondering about is the portion just rearward of the point. There seems to be some wear there. It could be machined that way I do not know. Should it be flat? Sorry for the bad description. It's difficult to describe. I know there are a few transmission gurus out there. Thanks

The surface is important, but so is the clearance between the ring and the teeth. Once the ring is worn, it needs to be replaced. Fortunately, only the first and second synchros need to be replaced in most gearboxes, since the upper gears don't usually get as much of a workout. Fourth and fifth generally last forever. Synchro rings are also only about $50 each. The first gear slider is nearly $400.
