Hi.
I am planning to address the grinding I get when going into 1st gear at anything faster than a full stop. The Pelican article on the replacing first gear seems pretty good, and I plan to search these pages for nuggets of wisdom before starting. This thing has been grinding as long as I have had it and certainly long before that ... so I figure it is in pretty bad shape. Pelican suggests the following parts: slider, shift fork, synchro ring and brake band, dog teeth, and maybe first gear if it is worn. I plan to open it up before getting parts - and I assume they are all available without much trouble. I'd appreciate your thoughts on tackling this project as well as any advice. Thanks. Christian |
