gearbox synchro repair

Recommended Posts

Im having slight difficulty getting into third when down shifting from rapid momentum and suspect the synchro(s) are on the way out.

 

any recommendations for a top class transmission mechanic? I can take the gbox out.

I have Brodie.......I'm quite familiar with shift forks, shift drums, lay shafts, main shafts, gear sets of a manual transmission but no synchro experience.

 

Wonder if I could take a crash course between now and winter.........never to old to learn :)

Syncros just slide on once the gears are off. I don't think there are any transmission shops locally that will touch our transmissions. I asked South Centre for a quote to install my diff as they should have the factory tools for pre load and back lash, they said they can't do it, that they just buy a new transmission of the diff requires replacement. I then called Reigel and said he'd get a quote and call back..... Never did. I'll end up pulling it apart and doing it myself.
