hecko everyone,
I have not been an active member as far as conversations or input goes, but for the last several years I cannot tell you how valuable the knowledge contained within C3vr has been for me (thanks everyone). I have been able to answer most of my questions through existing forums. Now I need to ask for some help:

I have already been through the differential, u-joints, brakes...I'm finally ready to install my Christmas present...a new clutch. The reason for getting into the clutch is because of the terrible noise the throw-out bearing made one morning when the temp was in the 20's. Sure enough it will barely spin by hand...hence my fork is worn down and needs replacing too.

Question, I have the Borg-Warner 4 spd (1976 with ~ 50,000) and it has shifted well since I have had it except once in a while 2nd gear crashes (I believe it could be due to the amount of adjustment I had done because of the worn fork?)

Anyway, I have seen Joels pictures of the worn syncronizer and I believe my issue can also be a worn/trashed 2nd sync. I was bummed to find Ecklars only had the kit and video for the Muncie and not the Borg-Warner. I need to replace the seals / gaskets anyway but would like to know if there is a manual / video for my transmission to get me through it?

Thanks,
Mark
PS (Joel, I live in Frsco and would like to buy you dinner or lunch sometime).

Mark,

The Muncie and the T10 transmissions are virtually the same on the inside. Even a couple of the gears are the same, as well as the synchro assembly for 3-4.
The factory service manual has the O/H info. And, of course, I'll be glad to help if you get in a pickle!

I need to do mine Joel but getting American Muncie parts in Australia is damn nigh impossible.  I've been to a few web sites which appear to have good reasonably priced parts.  They are always touting to use the Italian made gear sets. (I need a full set of gears as mine are all worn to some degree, especially the countershaft cluster)  My case is good and I have removed the antilash spring loaded plate on the front of the countershaft cluster, 'cause the rivets let go. 

The quick shift holes are fine...they do make the shifter "throw" a bit shorter, but it also makes it a little harder to shift in normal driving. If you "speed shift" a lot, then that's the position to be in. But...if you just drive normally(whatever that is!), then I would leave them in the longest holes.

Here is another place for parts and they may have a video. http://www.5speeds.com/

Chips58, try this guy.

He has the Italian made gears as well as anything else you would need. I bought a bunch of parts for my 4 speed from him. Great guy and good advice.

Best of Luck.

Thank you suncountry. Very good info compared to what I have. I will see how far I get this weekend.

When I rebuilt mine I use 5speed.com for parts. At the time that was the only place I could find online that had a complete kit. Had no problems getting the parts.

Thanks guys, I'll check out the dealers you recommend and see how I go.  Driving style Joel?.....What other style is there?
