Transmission ? T5

I have a friend has a 95 gt. Its making a loud ass noise in reverse. Like its gonna explode! So we pull it out, put a new reverse gear, slider and dog rings in. Reinstalled it tonight. Problem still exists. Gears 1-5 work fine. Only problem is in reverse. I am so stumped. Any help appreciated.

Just swap the input shaft, bearing retainer, and bellhousing.... just make sure the input shaft has the same bearing style to match the output shaft.

Please describe better. Is is a loud constant whine, an irratic cluncking, a ratchetting sound, etc....?

Which reverse gear are you refering to? Was it the 3-4 slider/reverse gear on the output shaft, or the small idler gear in the bottom of the case?

Also, did you check the endplay on the cluster while you were in the tranny? What end play did you end up with on the main shaft?

maybe just the driveshaft rubbing the mufflers (or something) under the car when backing up.

Gears can make noise in one direction if not setup correctly.
