Tranny & 2nd Gear

[95_cobra123]

Hey guys have not been around in about 6 to 7 months missed u all. Well heres the prob. I think my 2nd gear is going it wont go in it when i am slowing down if i rev it up first past 3000rpms it will go in. or when i am racing it will go in some times but not all the time. I really dont want 2 spend alot of money but i will if i have 2. It did not start till i put in my Pro 5.0 shifter. That when i noticed it. Well guys thanks again.

Check the "stops" you may have to back it out some and it's not letting it go in sometimes.

Stops whats that...

Short shifters have "stops" that you adjust. I think it you put it in 3rd and adjust the stops to where they just hit the handle. Put it in 2nd and do the same.

Oh "stops" are a stud with two nuts (lol) that allows you to move the stud back and forth and tighten in place.

yea the stop on that i took out i thought it was that 2 lol wish it was that easy

But like i said i can go in to 2nd when the rpms are high anuf.

If it's not that my second "guess" would be your second gear syncros are going, going, gone. Won't know till you open it up and see unfortunitlly.

Well www.astroperformance.com has the cheapest rebuild kit for around $160 plus labor around $400 depending on what the shop labor rate is it could be +/-.
