I've got the transmission off the h23 engine and the bell housing off, but I can't get the gears out, it acts like the main gear that moves the axles is in the of pulling everything else out but i don't know how to putt these all put.
If you've got the cases split and the gear stacks are stuck in the engin e side case then you only have to remove the 2 screws on the reverse cog (#8 in the pic) and the entire gear/fork assembly should come out. There could be some corrosion on the input shaft that'll hang up on the inner shaft seal but it should be easy enough to slide it all apart.
Inside there's a big snap ring holding the entire assembly in there.
Use pliers to expand the snap ring and the guts will fall out.
From here on out I strongly suggest you get a Helm Factory service manual. It's 2000 pages of very specific data/procedure on how to work on your car. They can be downloaded for free.
I would also be concerned with the reverse gear idler/shifter arm as you disassembled it out of order and I think you probably forced something apart when it was reluctant...
okay thanks I will try this sometime this week when it warms up, if it does, but other than that I never forced anything out it just all kind of fell out like it is but ill try to find that download somewhere and go through it thoroughly thanks!
okay another dumb question how to I get that snap ring loose, and I see what you're talking about now on the reverse shifter, I didn't break anything or force anything out that was a huge problem I had but I managed to get a wrench inside the transmission and take that arm loose before ripping it apart.
The case is already open so you dont need to worry about the snap ring anymore. Take about four more sideview pics so we can see whats going on or make a vid.
After removing the 2 bolts that hold the reverse idler the shafts should come right out.
okay I haven't taken any pictures yet but the snap ring ended up coming out anyway thanks to a friend screwing around, and now the gears all tried to fall out but became wedged on what I presume is the differential (giant gear with 10 bolts that turns the axel?) anyway I took the 10 bolts off of that only to discover that with the differential out of the way, the plate it bolts to is now in the way. Is there anyway to get that entire assembly off???
Not really sure how to help now that you have pulled stuff apart in the wrong order, but go on youtube and watch the tutorials on rebuilding an H series transmission that I believe syncrotech did. That will give you a good view on how the process is "supposed" to go, and you can hopefully work through it with that help.
Okay I finally got the gears out, I would've been able to take pictures you guys would've seen the silver cylinder that the axel plugs into was still connected to the differential and I didn't know how to get that off, but when it came off everything else finally just feel down. Thanks for the help maybe I can put it back together in the right order now that I see how it was supposed to come out!
okay thanks i watched the video but before i put it together im putting a pc in my shop so i can watch step by step lol now i have 1 more question i was going to replace the synchronizers on this tranny and in the picture the gear my lower finger is on is seized on there it wont turn or pull of for anything and i dont think thats normal but yall are way more of an expert than me so you tell me, is this normal and how do i get it off?
