Rebuilding my T-56. Do I need to replace any of these gears?

I'm not an expert but I'm learning.

Overall your gears look ok. A little side wear on the counter shaft cluster, but normal.

A couple of you syncro assemblies need to be replaced.

Your billet keys look about shot.

Overall not to bad. IMO ... Looks like a basic rebuild.

The gear teeth are fine but the clutching teeth are not. Isee at least two fractures struts(inserts) and the sleeve clutch teeth are worn. It would appear that either shifts were missed regularly or the clutch did not release properly . It doesn't matter which the damage is there.
