manual tranny question for the experts
 

what is wrong with a tranny if it keeps popping out of 5th gear and is sometimes really hard to get into that gear?

synchro?

this is on my friends T-56

if it was just hard to go in that particular gear,I would think a synchronizer problem,put popping out of gear sounds to me like a shifter issue,like either something is binding,worn,or out of adjustment

Shifter or a shift fork. Not sure what other gears that particular fork engage. Is it only 5th gear?

Best bet: Call "T56rebuilds"

Ask for Amber and tell her Matt with SPEC clutch sent you.

The keys in the slider hub are probably all broken or non-existent.

only 5th gear does it.. 1/2 the time it pops out of 5th gear... alot of the times its hard to even get it to go into 5th.

thanks for the help.

5.0 all the way :chug:

might want to try to adjust your shifter, mine did that in 3rd, somthing you might want to try first before you rip out the tranny

:werd:

T56's have internal stops something is fawked up in the guts I'm guessing.

its gonna be a bitch pulling this thing out.

its not bad.

hehe make shure you have an ass load of extensions and a couple of swivles, i still left one starter bolt out when i converted mine to a 3650 :jester:
