at the track the other day the car got stuck in 4th on a pass. A little banging i got it out and drove good. I got on the highway today and the trans stuck in 4th again only this time it is not coming out. Had to run 3 stop signs to make it to a buddys house. Any ideal what this could be and about how much to fix. I am thinking the selecter arm in the trans.

 

anybody

 

If the trans has not been upgraded, it came with an aluminum 3/4 shift fork. These are known to wear and cause sticking in 3rd or 4th gear.The iron replacement is what you need.

 

It's Broke

It needs a tear down and rebuild

Most likely a key stuck in there and no matter how hard you try, it is not moving.

 

^^More than likely what happened.

 

My bet is a key, maybe a shift fork. Upgrade to the steel 3/4 fork once inside. (and billet keys)

 

^ yea, I had a guy I used to know have the issue and when we tore it down, it was lodged right in there.

 

The fork wears and then allows the sleeve to over extend. This puts the struts / keys out of position and jamb / eventually break. I t is quite possibel that the struts/ keys are not broken, just jambed. So , yes its a bent fork that is the root of the problem. If you just replace a broken key/ strut, you will not solve the problem.
