    t5 help

    dont you have to put it in 5th gear then reverse? This is what i have always been told because reverse doesnt have a syncro. If i put it in reverse it will grind then go in but if i put it in 5th gear then reverse its fine. This is with my old and new t-5.

    how hard to rebuild T-5 and any tips

    Its not really hard at all. Its pretty straight forward if you have the manual, but if you get the video its a big help and will help you out more. Pretty much just take everything off and put it in order then put it back on the same way.

    tranny grinding

    Are you putting it into 5th gear or 4th before you put it into reverse? Otherwise it will almost always grind since 5th gear does not have a synchro.
