Bad Synchros?
Bad Synchros? My car's trans keeps popping out of 2nd and 4th.. I just started yesterday out of the blue. I'm assuming this means my synchros have gone bad?
If that seems to be the consensus, I'll be rebuilding it obviously. I was looking at the Tick Stage 2 Rebuild (it's a relatively stock car and will be getting a larger ls2 based engine in the future- 2-3 years). Thoughts on this? Is there a better rebuild to go for? It will continue to be a DD for a while and will eventually see some road course action.

Verify that any shifter stops haven't loosened and keeping the shifter from fully engaging. Unlikely that 2 different synchro keys or shift fork pads busted at exactly the same time.

My first t56 had issues with 3rd, and after new synchros still had the issues, turned out shift fork... so if you dont get lucky like these guys, you may have a trans issue (which is NO fun)
