I can shift into all gears, but shifting is hard... What I mean by hard is that I need to put some muscle into getting the car into some of the gears. 1st - grinds just about every time I try to get it in. 2nd - easiest to shift into 3rd - hard to engage 4th - harder to engage than 3rd 5th - hard to engage Aside from that, there have been times that it was equally hard to get it out of a gear. New bushings - adjusted shift pattern I think correctly. Car is new to me and has only been running (motor rebuild recently) maybe 400 miles since the rebuild. I did have the tranny axle seals replaced - but that's about all that's been done to it. |

What type of gear oil are you running?
Condition of the bushings? Is there anything rubbing up against the shift rod underneath the car, like a loose heater part (I've had this happen)? Is is the same regardless of the car running or turned off? Cheers, Randy |
