situation on my T-5...
 

Talked to a guy that knows his stuff, he said i can save 250$ if i pull the trans myself, plus he told me the sound im hearing is a "cluster" and possibly, most likely a bad "bearing", also said he will do a bench job and let me watch him do the whole job http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/smile.gif and he said it wont be to expensive, considering thats all it might need, i have faith in this guy. thnx for the help guys, and hope you other guys sharing my frustration get things squared away.

If it is the cluster, you are looking at $250 for a new one, and you should replace the imput shaft since it rides on top of the cluster another $100, and the master rebuild kit runs around $150. That is what went out on mine, except my imput shaft only had 3 teeth left and the bottom cluster gear that meshed with it didn't even look like a gear anymore..I'll see if I cna take some pic's and post them.

Good Luck

What ecxactly does that master rebuild kit contain? bearings? i told the guy i only wanted necesary parts, cuz im on a budget http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/frown.gif he did mention the price for the cluster, but i think i can get a good rebuild out of it for under 400 i hope.
since im pulling it myself i should go ahead and try rebuilding it....naw:8 maybe i better not.

The master rebuild kits do come with all the bearings, snycros, sliders, pads for the forks, and all the other little parts for the rebuild.
