3/4 shift fork install?
3/4 shift fork install? Well I have my trans pulled and I am receiving my parts today. I'm thinking of trying this myself. I have the t56 rebuild book and tools nessacery. I'm only changing 3/4 fork ,pads, and keys. Also changing 1/2 pads, keys and shift cup. This would be my first trans. Would this be a difficult task? Thanks
Yes, I've read the stickie and have done multiple searches. I really wanted to know how far I would have to break down the tranny or could the fork be replaced without disassembling the gears
Also I repair all my vehicles execpt when its trans or rearend. I always fear something would go wrong. I also just did h/c/I ,clutch and all gaskets on camaro. It's just driving me crazy because I would love to accomplish this. Thanks Brennen
If you're replacing the keys you are tearing it down to a bare mainshaft. The 1-3 gears are coming off to get to the synchro assy's. At this point, why aren't you replacing the blocking rings? You are essentially rebuilding the whole trans but not replacing the most commonly worn parts? I would highly recomend getting new blocking rings while you are in it that far.
