Shifting problem with all new gear box parts
Some time ago Tom Endy posted that the repo shifting forks are questionable. I don't have ready access to old parts. Could someone tell me what is wrong with the repo parts so I can get them fixed? Thanks, Bill G

Re: Shifting problem with all new gear box parts
This is one area where parts interchability doesn't exist.Transmission assemblers at the Rouge had a box of sliding gears to 'fit' up an assembly, they would match up the best set of sliders and cluster gear.

Re: Shifting problem with all new gear box parts
The repo forks that I have seen have the slots too narrow for the ball on the end of the repo shift lever to fit into.

Re: Shifting problem with all new gear box parts
You haven’t detailed “shifting problem”. You’ll get more ideas, if the problem was described.

Looked at alignment of forks on the shifting shafts and it is obvious forks don't line up side to side when in neutral. I will have to alter one or both. |

Re: Shifting problem with all new gear box parts
Tower forks can become bent and cause shifting problems. it is often difficult to tell they are bent. I made a jig to check them. See attached article.
