Is your tranny feeling like this?
Send it to me and I will make it feel and perform like this! If your tranny is feeling its age, grinding, and popping out of gear I have the solution for you! If you have checked the other, outside of the tranny causes for these symptoms and found them to be ok then your tranny may be in need of a rebuild. Some outside of the tranny causes for some of your shifting woes: -Shifter bushings along the shift rod -Cone set screws -Tranny cable adjustment, shifter adjustment -Clutch, TO bearing, pressure plate -Engine and tranny mounts So, you have checked all of the above and it is still not working as it should. What do you do!? Send it to me! Repairs, modifications, conversions, you name it. I am interested in getting your car shifting correctly and lasting a long time while providing you with the greatest value and service. If you have questions I would be happy to help you. If you want to take pics of your gear stack and get an opinion feel free to contact me. Do you want to bring it by and have me take it apart to diagnose it? I will gladly do this, and for free. I will diagnose any tranny for no charge. I have a great stock of excellent used internal parts for much less than new with no loss in performance, as well as new, if you are interested. I have many different gear sets. I highly recommend all new main bearings; input shaft (x2), pinion shaft (x2) and differential (x2). I stock these bearing set at far less than retail. For shipping instructions, PM me. Any questions feel free to PM me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wavey.gif) For more info, click the link to my web page in my sig below. Here is also a link to an excellent thread by DNHunt on how to rebuild the tranny if you want a basic overview http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...=40904&st=0 |

Hi Dr. Evil. Hoping you are still helping out fellow 914ers trying to get their machines operating normally!
My teenager son and I are in the middle of a restoration of a 1971-4 that we purchased summer of last year. It was inoperable for the past 10 years sitting in a garage. We got the engine running, and of course the shifting was terrible. We rebuilt the pedal cluster, and replaced all of the shifting linkage bushings, balls. There were no bushings anywhere so I thought that would solve my problem. We did the adjustments, and it shifted much better (actually got into 4th & 5th gears) but still some grinding from time to time on the downshift into 2nd and some trouble engaging 1st - possible we need to look at my clutch cable adjustment again, but we just dropped the engine to get to work on the gaskets/tin, etc. We don't know the exact mileage so with engine and tranny out, plan to inspect the clutch, flywheel and thinking would be great to look at the gears. We have no experience with transmissions and thinking having an expert work the gears could save me both time and money. If you are still working would love to connect with you. Please let me know. Thanks. Steve (the dad) |
