Re:tranny help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
You're putting it in gear when you do that. It's kinda hard to turn that shaft by hand in gear. Put your purse down and turn that fucker. :P

If it doesn't work make the guy refund it. And if he wont refund it take it back to his house and throw it thru every window on every car in his driveway.

Re:tranny help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
i planned on it fook, he gave me his address and his friends address but who knows, said he lives in federal way and if i have a prob call him and he will refund it but most people wount anyways. i think its fucked cause i cannot get it to turn in any other gear and it turns real smooth in 1st.

FooK 12-24-2004 12:28 PM

Re:tranny help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
other gears have more load than 1st too, so that might be affecting your ability to hand turn it.

just give it a shot.

Well i went outside"cold" opened my shed and checked my ls tranny.all the gears i could turn the shaft (i had on a clutch disc) but still every gear turned in both directions without much tension.maybe there is a problem with yours.i could spin first gear with my finger like a damn fan,as i went up in gearing it had a little more tension but i could still turn it with my finger.

uhh, why not just split the case apart real quick and see what is going on. How do you know for certain a shift fork is broke? take it apart to be sure.


mycrx 12-26-2004 03:34 PM

Re:scammer alert in Tacoma area
 
thats how i am sure the shift fork is busted, someone put it together and its not been used since, new syncros and grease but tommorow my dad is taking the dif apart so ill post up whats going on with that.
