Ok.....

I took my tranny apart and installed my obx diff. Put the tranny back together and it will not go into 1st,3rd,4th and 5th. An old motorsports mechanic told me to check the 12mm screw with the ball and spring closes to the passenger axle. Removed the screw to find that the spring was messed up and the ball was wedged into the screw(sorry bolt). The opening on the bolt is now oblonged(not circle). Is this the problem or do I have to open the case back up..

Thanx. This was my 1st time in my tranny.

 

anything????

bump

 

pics help GREATLY.

 

ok

 

pics are blurrd but the 1st pic is the old bolt with spring.

The second one got logged in there and has some marks on the ball. As if it was pressed against something.

 

macro mode is the flower icon on your camera.....turn it on

..and maybe hold the subject a little further away from the camera so it can focus on it.

 

dang that sucks, you shoulda found the write up i had when i changed all the gears in my tranny myseld for the first time, and put it back on, and i had every gear still HAHA...i got lucky...nah i got skilllzzzz....lol. but nah, good luck, there are some serious D series tranny people on here that will know...All i know is in the write up i had, there is a lever inside the tranny and if these 3 lil thing arent lined up right it will bend it and says id lose all gears... But yeah the tranny experts wil be thru soon im sure.

yeah its like 3 things and they have a notch in them, and part of this other thing goes in that notch. expletive it, i cant explain it...lol..only rebuilt my transmission once...i dont know how to explain it, i could do it if i was there.

 

This peice which I have no idea the name is what I think is the problem. Ok 2 out of the 3 tolerances are out of spec according to the write-up I went through.

This one is out of spec:

Im think I will have to change this piece. We where able to get it into all the gears its just took a lil effort.
