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?

Contact Red-beard here on the board as he lives in Houston and has worked on a bunch of these. He taught me everything that I know and I have done quite a few myself. He is listed in the vendors section. The bearings are no longer $400, they are about $150 ea x2 and are much better thatn the originals if you even need them. You are lucky if it is only second as the parts are much cheaper. THe dog teeth should be below $150, if you need them. The synchro bands were $66 last I saw. What I would immagine you needing is at the worst:1 synchro, 2nd gear slider, 2nd dog teeth. I recommend searching for the prices of everything first. I like GPR for my parts as they are usually the cheapest and have always given me dependible service. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to PM me.
