Re: New transmission locks up. Only spins free in neutral. Thoughts?
OK, thanks. According to Mac VP, it can be used. It was a later replacement for earlier gear sets.
I think I found a few issues. The brass washer between the synchro hub and second gear was too tight. I changed it for an old one I had. New one didn't leave enough slack. I have .006" now (.008" is max).
Also, the sychro hub was NOS and stiff as heck. I've been working it back and forth, it has loosened up a lot. I also put the old springs in the blocks. Seems to have helped.
Too late to put it back together tonight.
