Syncros
Anyone done a set of syncros? How much of a PITA is it? My car needs 1st and 3rd replaced really bad but I keep putting it off. When I do it I think I'll just do all 5.
Going to be a summer progect though.. it's just too damn cold right now.

From looking at the diagrams of how to disassemble a beta tranny on HMAService, it doesn't look easy. But the diagrams are there.

What exactly is it that causes a syncro to go bad? I have a bad feeling that my 2nd needs done but it will still be under warranty. It's just the pain of getting the car in and being without it for a day or two if not more.

Picking up a used tranny is in my opinion the better idea of the two. I ended up paying too much $$$ rebuilding the tranny 'cause i was cornered into when i realized it was too late. I spent about $2200 which if ask me is quite a bit especially compared to $200-$300 for a used one. I hit myself in the head EVERYDAY for it especially since that money was for a turbo kit. I was a victum of my own ignorance! If anything came out of this, i would hope everyone would learn from my mistake.
