My '76 has this grinding problem with 1st gear. It goes through all the gears just fine but when I am slowing to enter a driveway or for any reason 1st grinds. If I come to a complete stop it will go in just fine. Is there a fix for this?

Anthony,
its the same as a 901 basically. I would recommend that you change the synchro now. The other gears synchros will wear out much slower and if you "wait to do the whole thing" you will need to pay considerably more as first gear takes a beating.

Oh ya, you can just flip the synchro as well if it hasnt been done before. They have two sides. I t would likely cost you only for the seal kit.
