Hi guys,
Before I start taking things apart I thought I’d run my problem past you guys. My 56 pan tranny is starting to give me reason for concern. While going thru the gears the tranny doesn’t engage the gears until the engine rpm drops. I’m talking about nice and easy shifting, not banging thru the gears. It has always done this between 1st and 2nd if I was getting on it hard so I’ve learned not to do that. But now it is doing it thru the entire gear range.
Once the rpm’s drop I can hear the gears click and engage and everything is fine till the next shift. I had the tranny apart 2yrs ago to put a speedo gear in and replaced 3rd gear on the main shaft while I was in there. At that time the shift forks showed some signs of wear but nothing worth worrying about. Or so I thought. Any idea’s…?
