My first gear was a little scratchy if idling a little fast or shifting before coming to a complete stop. The synchro ring was clearly worn, but the dog teeth and slider looked fine.
So I ordered a synchro ring on eBay and installed today, but was disappointed to find that first is still a little scratchy.
The rings I have used in the past were black, but this one was grayish, and the texture did not seem to be as rough as I recall for a new ring.
Are there sub-standard rings out there, and did I just buy one?
Or am I missing something?
