Just grinds going into 2nd gear????

[tayzoid1]

yea only into 2nd and how can i get in touch with qwk?

[04 Mach1]

Sounds like ya need a rebuild.

[Disney Lincoln]

He meant "Good call, QWKSNKE" :lol:

You should call UPS or Maximum motorsports (prefered) and order a new cable and quadrant.

You should call UPS...and order a new cable and quadrant.

:D yea, I was referring to QWKSNKE's post being correct. IIRC, he runs the Fiore brand quadrant.

I'll get you a price on Steeda's quadrant kit too.

Steeda double hook quadrant with Steeda adjustable cable.
$69 plus shipping (between $5-10).

well i just puit in a new cable at christmas and how hard is it to replace the quadrant and the only thing is im only ginding into 2nd only the transmission guy a c&h(works on the race cars my father inlaw builds) so i know hes not trying to skrew me over becous sammy is crazy and would shoot him if he did. but any way he said he thinks it need new sycronizers(spelling?) but its going be 250 bucks for the everything is that bad?

[QWKSNKE]

no. $250 is very cheap

[04 Mach1]

Is that the installed price? In had 220 just in the rebuild kit.

[tayzoid1]

but does it sound like a quadrant or the tranymission syncronizers?

[04 Mach1]

If its going into all the other gears without grinding I'd say the syncronizers. Everytime I had a OEM quadrant go bad it wounldn't even pull the cable enough to put it in any gear.
