StraightSix Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Are you talking about the kits themselves or the bearings? I assume he was referring to the bearings. Im no bearing expert but what Ive been told is that its "Timken or nothing". I think Timken and Koyo might be the same manufacturer now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I admit I was ready to throw in the towel at one point because the shifting required way to much effort. Then I read through the directions again, and checked some tolerances. One ten thousands spacer in between a syncro and the gear next to it did the trick. Shifts real nice and crisp now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have the tranny installed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
