01 M6 Car won't hold 3rd gear anymore,just pops out.So I ordered the steel shift fork , all syncro pieces and manual from D+D.I can see the assembly when you take off the input cover.
How involved is it in rebuilding?I have no problems getting dirty <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

I notice there is a lot of snap rings <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> Figure's the fork/syncro setup is the last one to get to <img border="0" alt="[Banging Head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" />

Significantly easier than the Super T-10 that I'm rebuilding right now from my 79Z. T56 was cake, IMHO. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> If you have the manual, no problem. You just need a good pair of snap ring pliers (that can spread them wide), and maybe a puller, and if you're going to do all the synchros, a press with a bearing splitter. Fortunately I had access to all that, so my T56 rebuild went well.
Good luck,
Andrew

I got it from D+D performance.They were great to deal with.Also got the steel shift fork.Took me around 5 hours to rebuild the tranny.
