Well I had an hour this morning so I pulled the stack from the tranny. I got it on the bench and it shifts solid into all gears except 4th (not a surprise) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) , only gets part way in. I also heard a clicking or something when I turned the shaft and the gears spun, like a loose piece of metal flopping around in there, is this normal?
So What do I do now? |

First, why are your gear stacks so dry? When I first pull them they are usually really wet.
Second, on the slider, which end was facing 4th? With a caliper, measure the synchro band in several places. What is your measurement? If it is too large something has happened to it and it won't fit inside the slider. I had something like this happen to 5th gear in a 915 box. One of my anchor blocks moved causing the synchronizer ring to be too large. (That's when I found my worn Pinion gear....) Attached image(s) |
