Any grinding at all that you hear??
Have you had any problems with your tranny/clutch before?

honestly its the first time i have ever done anything like this. I tighten the bolts opposite from each other, and it felt like it alined right, it slid right in. Ive asked a few other people and all they say is my throw out bearing is stuck or the sping or fork went out. im just gonna have to take it apart to see if its one of those problems, ill let you know if it is. if not im not sure what to do, i hope my tranny didnt go out.

<U>your throw out bearing is stuck or the sping or fork went out</U>

Ya Sorry I didnt toss that in there on the first reply ...

To be honest bro i had that same problem on a tranny back in the day..
The car didnt want to go into any gear and if it did the only way was to get it into gear was to force it... When doing that you know that something is really not right...

Take your tranny out again man and re-install your clutch and see what happens. if that is not the problem get your tranny looked at.. Or keep asking the pros on the site for more info about the issue... GJ man .

well i fianally found the time to get that tranny out yesterday and the problem was alot worse that i though. The little sprokets in the deferential broke loose. So at this point i only have two options, the first one is i know this guy that says that he could fix it if nothing really broke and if the parts just came loose, but if i do that i figure if it came loose once its gonna do it again. So i went online and found a place a few hours away from me that is selling a transmission for $200 with a 6 month warranty. I think ill just buy the one and fix the other for a spare just in case.
