Rebuilt gearbox now lost 5th gear

[mr_K]

I replaced the bearings in my gearbox and now i put everything back together but i havent got 5th gear,

Ive got 1-2-3-4 and reverse but the 5th wont engage.

Does the 5th gear and synchro fit in one direction?

I maybe have fiddled around with it when pressing it on.

I sorted it out,

Had to take the gearbox off again and open it up,

The 2nd selector rod was placed wrong facing the wring direction not alowing the two ball bearings to switch and select 5th.

What a headache..
