Calling all J West Level 3 kit users.....
I've got the full works kit from J West but no matter how I adjust it 2nd gear is a problem. Basically it goes into all other gears fine, no problem. 2nd gear however has a 60/40 chance of going in and staying in. 60% of the time it'll go in and stay in, whether going up the gears or down the gears. BUT.... 40% of the time it'll seem to go in but it'll pop out straight away. The gearbox is new and built by a very respectable guy, so it aint that. The fact that it goes into 5th and reverse seems to me that the shifter has enough throw forwards. Any ideas??? |

I noticed mine (by hand, not installed yet) goes from bushing to bushing here:
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net-1110-1298007184.1.jpg) When you set it up, did you check the clearances before tightening? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net-1110-1298007184.2.jpg) |
