Trany Rebuild

[GritsnGravy]

My syncro in 1st is completely out. It won't hardly shift into 1st except sometimes between 25-20mph. I was wondering if anybody rebuilt their own 5 speed trany? If so, how hard was it and where do you get the parts. If I rebuild it, I want to put double syncros in 1st. Can you put double syncros in a gear without custom fabrication?

Thanks
Paul

Man. I'v never done it before. but I'm looking at probably doing the same thing myself.

almost all my gears bind up a little unless I shift at just the right rpm. and it's kinda pissing me off.

Never mind I just read TRE is no longer selling parts.

My car just started doing the same thing in 1st. It used to go in alright as long as I was rolling, but now it just doesn't go in at all. If you take yours apart post what you find.

I'm considering finding a rebuilt transmission and swapping. otherwise I'm sending my trans out for rebuilding.

I don't have time to rebuild it

I've rebuilt trannies before, however all I've done to a 4G63T tranny is change shift forks. However I know people who DO build trannies. If you know what you are doing is can still be a pain getting all those critical clearances right. A simple answer is unless you are a very experienced mechanic I wouldn't attempt it. Just think how fun it is pulling your tranny out of your car. If you keep getting things wrong you'll get to do it ALOT.
