I got the Tranny in the Car finally.. since I got it in 4th Gear had been really notchy. Now after driving it around some today, as I put it into 4th and start to let the Clutch out it kicks the Shifter out of that gear and grinds. When I baby it into the Gear is when it kicks it out, if I'm holding it with some resistance it stays in.
Also, as I'm cruising if I push the Clutch in and move it out of 4th and try to easily put it back in, it grinds too.
I have a B&M Ripper Shifter with the Set Screws. I'm going to back off the one on the 4th Gear side a little bit and see if that helps.

Does this possibly sound like the 4th Gear Scyncro is out?

Sounds like a syncro issue to me...what was done to the trans when it was out? (since you said you finally got it back in)

Ya that's what I figured..

I'll run it till it blows up I guess.


The Tranny is stock.. I just got done doing a T56 Swap.

Could be the syncro or it could be the pads on the fork are worn out . When you barely put it into 4th , there is not enough travel because the fork pads are worn out . If it does not grind at higher more forceful shifts , that probably what it is .
