3rd gear shift?
Does a t-5 3rd gear shift, feel like it clicks twice into gear?

It could be your synchros wearing out, my second gear started feeling the same way a few months ago then it started grinding every once and a while-usually only when going through the gears fast. Now it does it sometimes even when I don't get on it. ------------------ 86 Mustang GT w/pretty stock 93 5.0 (cam,pulleys,injectors, throttlebody,h-pipe) Motor to be swapped for a 1970 429 +.030, ported heads, solid roller cam, victor intake, 10.2:1 comp, C-6 trans, 3:73 rearend W/moser axles |

Well, my stock shifter is back in, also, my t-5 is brand new rebuilt, but what im saying is, there is an area where 3rd feels like it goes into gear, but i have to bump it up a little more to make sure it goes into gear, and using little force, i guess it's normal thats why everyone misses 3rd the most....

My dad's '95 does that, with 45K easy miles on it. Supposedly, it's a small "lockout" sort of thing, to keep people from banging third too hard and wrecking the tranny.
