![]() i got a t-5 tranny with about 100,000 miles on it, it started to grind when i shift from 1st into 2nd then 3rd into 4th it will grind and i can feel it in the shifter, its only when i shift fast if i ease in into to 2nd or 4th it fine and no other noises or problems except this, you guy's have any ideas, could it be the sync's? thanks

![]() Does it ever kick out of gear? If not, then the gears themselves are still intact, but the syncs are gone, trust me, (coming from someone on their 3rd rebuilt t-5),
If your gonna put 70$ synchros in, go ahead and rebuild the whole thing, with that kind of mileage, it's just a matter of time, could happen when you least expect it, like driving from the grocery store like me ![]() edit: clutch cable can cause problems as well, but 100k miles t-5, probaly needs rebuild.

![]() no it never kicks out of gear on me, just the grinding, and i have a brand new bbk adjustable clutch cable on the car cause when it started to grind i thought maybe my cable was stretched but know luck there, do you need to split the tranny open when you get your syncs done if thats the case then i will take your advice and get it rebuilt, whats it cost to get it rebuilt?
thanks, coupe50h |

![]() I'm with Coupe. Synchros are all smeared over. Hell, we used to do that to those T5's in a matter of weeks. LOL
Save yourself a headache, have a tranny shop with a good reputation give her the once over, and you'll be good to go. ![]()
