Hello Stangnet:
I apologize in advance if this is terrible etiquette, but I already posted this question to the 94-95 board and now I'm copying and pasting it here. It was like this:
This is my first post to this board. I am putting a T5 out of a '95 GT into a '65 fastback. But first I am installing a Counter Gear Stabilizer kit from Medatronics (www.5speeds.com). This requires removal of the fifth gear from the back of the case.
I have removed everything down to the synchronizer hub, but it just doesn't want to come off. That is, I've got the synchronizer sleeve off, and those three little things that look like little toy cars are out, and the brass ring from the middle too. But the synchronizer hub seems to be hung up on something. It slides back and forth on its splines, but won't slide off.
What is the trick?
Part two, I did not mark my synchronizer sleeve and hub prior to separating them. Now I read in the T5 service manual and in the Chris Neighbors T5 rebuild page that I should have done this. Well, I didn't, so now what?
TIA, and please have pity on an ignorant newbie.
