So, continuing to nail down remaining ankle-biter issues on my -6 conversion.
Symptom: The last inch of throw getting into 1st at a standstill is tough. Description: About half the time, I need to reengage the clutch and/or shift into reverse before going down to 1st. When it does go in, there's a definite mechanical feel of a notchiness or increased effort for the last little bit. When shifting into first while still rolling, 1st engages every time. R- and 2nd - 5th are great. Evaluation to date: Clutch adjustment is good, all the bushings (firewall, and the 2 at the tranny end) and the conical set screw are new in the last year. Adjusting the shifter (man I hate that) hasn't helped. Thoughts? I'm thinking maybe 1st gear slider, but I'm tranny dumb, so I don't know and don't wanna drain the case and pull the tail cover off unnecessarily. |
