Ive got this extra 1985 t5 and the 3rd gear syncro is toast, the gears are all fine as well as the bearings. i just want to fix the syncro put this transmission in the 91 so i can do the whole rebuild kit on my 91's t5

so does anyone know where i can pick up just the 3rd gear syncro?
and how much?

thanks

See http://www.ttcautomotive.com/English/onlineorder/product.asp to download a FREE service manual for T5 or Tremec 3550
You will need the Adobe Acrobat viewer which is also a free download – http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html

See http://www.ddperformance.com/index2.htm for parts
OR
http://www.hanlonmotorsports.com/

A T5 rebuild kit with syncros, bearings and other small parts costs about $160. It does not include any gears or shafts.

There is a video on how to rebuild your T5 or Tremec. If http://www.hanlonmotorsports.com/ are out of stock see http://cartapes.com. It costs less than $20, and is worth every penny of it.

I second that. I doubt you'll be able to find just a 3rd gear synchro somewhere unless someone bought a whole set and then decided not to use one for some reason. Might as well replace them all now while its not in the car and save yourself the headache later!
