T56 rebuild?
I recently got a t56 tranny that has been built supposedly, but the input shaft has some play in it so i know ill need a input shaft bearing. What i need to know if how can i tell if theres anything else that need changing just by looks or feel?

inspect all the gears for chips/cracks/signs of wear. inspect synchro assemblies - especially the keys and blocking rings- for any signs of damage/wear. IMO, if you are going to start replacing bearings you should replace them all along with all new snap rings. If you are doing it yourself you will also need a bearing shim kit and a press (or something to use as a press). Oh, also inspect the main shaft for wear on the teeth.
