The 2nd gear syncro on my '71 is just about gone, have to shift to second very slowly to keep from grinding.

Was wondering what it would cost, ballpark figure, to have the syncro replaced?

Also, know of any shop in Central Texas, or Texas in general, that you would recommend?

good point ....

just get the OE stuff....don't look around for things that "fit".

the one to talk to is probably Red-Beard. He does some type of rebuilding. I don't know the details, but I'm assuming he'll answer the question better.

Edit: Oh and you should always check the level of gear oil. If it gets low, the intermediate bearing won't get the cooling it yearns for....as it is anyway, it only gets a small spritzing of gear oil every so often when full.....
