My 71 stocker has a new trans. It shifts nicely through all gear, note still breaking in, so it's tight. But what i notice is when setting at a light, and pushing clutch down and going into first it can be hard to get it right and sometimes I have to double clutch to get into first so I don' t get a grind. All new bushing down to the rear tail...is there a correct way to make adjusting under tunnel inspection panel. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

with the age of all our cars and the number of times flywheels have been resurfaced, I found my 1st gear / hard to shift at times only at a stop issue was cause by the throwout fork hitting the side of the trans with a full pedal depress, causing the clutch to still slightly drag. . It worked fine for 2nd thru 5th and 1st as long as I was still rolling. . and sometimes at a stop. . sort of an adventure when the light turned green. . . . . . It wasn't until i got a friend to push the pedal with me under the car to see what was going on. .
I pulled the trans last week and it took a .100 washer to shim the pivot ball out and get the geometry back to normal. . and suddenly the pedal feels a lot easier to push and it goes down a lot smoother. . |
