Sorry, but you have to take it completely apart to replace the 1-2 synchro.

Yeah the 5-6 and reverse are the only ones you can change without completely tearing it apart. You might as well upgrade the rest of the parts while its all torn down.

Look HERE and follow along the build. You can see how the trans is assembled so that should give to some idea.
