Default Rebuild kits for t56?

My syncros are going in 3rd gear, and it's getting harder to go into gear. I wanna take care of this before it gets worse and **** starts breaking. What is a good rebuild kit for my tranny? With the syncros and all

Don't order any parts until you get the trans torn down and inspected. That way you don't order a bunch of parts in a "kit" that you don't need and don't have to make a second order for a cluster or slider assembly that didn't come in the kit. T56 parts are pricey, only ordering what you need is much cheaper!

^ very true, but some things are a given like blocker rings, fork pads, and other wear things so you can start there.

I would go with a tick performance stage 2 kit... I have tortured mine for a few k and am very happy with it.

I see on their site they list prices including labor.. i'm guessing I have to call them to just ask how much the parts are without labor? My 3rd gear syncro is going, and im afraid of using this ls7 clutch that is grabbing like mad and with the cam and all that im going to just kill the tranny faster..lol
