jimjam Posted March 8, 2013 Author Share Posted March 8, 2013 Cost much to repair??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 The synchro's themselves are fairly cheap, its the labour of doing the job. Unless you fancy tackling it yourself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Its a gearbox out, pull apart, replace parts reassemble and refit gearbox. Most people just swap gearbox Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lew91 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I spent £560 rebuilding my box on Monday, that was a new 5th gear, all synchro's/bearings and seals.Bloody expensive but at least it's a strong box now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rmsnoel Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Check the cheap free stuff first. Bushes cables clutch freeplay and gear linkages. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mini1.3 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 (edited) have you replaced any worn bushes on the gearlinkage or checked for play mine cruntched and grinded years ago used the bearing upgrade and mines sweet might be worth a try also if you have done bearing upgrade might be worth checking there in flat. just some small cheap/free things to look.for Edited March 12, 2013 by mini1.3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
