Rob Kay Posted July 24, 2001 Share Posted July 24, 2001 I have a 5 speed SC Gearbox. The other day on the way home I noticed when I changed down from second to third there was a nasty crunch but not when I go from first to second. Is this terminal and if so where can I get it mended in Kent. I thank you now for any replies I get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatman Posted July 24, 2001 Share Posted July 24, 2001 Sounds like the 2nd/3rd synchro ring on the way out. If it is, the box will have to come out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EFA Posted July 24, 2001 Share Posted July 24, 2001 Rob, The "expert" in Kent is Phil Stewart at Road Race Transmissions in Shoreham (nr Sevenoaks). 01959 525105 Sounds like a broken synchro - a common fault in the 5spd S/C Most other people will sub the box to Phil anyway. His rates are very reasonable.
