Does anybody have a close up pic of the front of the main shaft where the cone bearing and the 4th gear syncro are mounted. I need to clear something up.

thanks

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

See http://www.hanlonmotorsports.com/ or http://www.ddperformance.com for parts

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

http://www.hanlonmotorsports.com/ also has a video on how to rebuild your T5 or Tremec. It costs about $20, and is worth every penny of it.

I did a Tremec 3550 rebuild, and it wasn't that difficult. The video was an immense help, and I would recommend viewing it. At $20, it will give you an opportunity to look and decide for yourself if you think that it is something you want to try to do.

You will also need a magnetic base and dial indicator to measure the endplay ($40-$120). http://www1.mscdirect.com/CGI/NNPDFF?PMPAGE=1303&PMCTLG=00

thats all good and stuff abut i allready have that book and file.....i need the one for the z-spec trans.....its different on the input shaft and main shaft connection. And I pulled it apart again and found the 3-4 synco hub slid forward and hit the cone bearing broke the 3 small parts that the spring holds causing the spring to come out. thats all thought.....and of corse the 4th sycro is burnt again. there is no groove for a c-clip or snap ring to hold the hub in place its free to slip as it pleases. I had to use a jaw puller to get it off and it came off hard but its not tight enough to stay under load. thats my problem. I'll call the trany guys monday to see. Hanlon is local for me....ill try them first.
