Hey all, also posting this on Supraforums and ALSC.. anyone pulled a R154 apart before?
--------------------------
Hi,
I have a R154 I bought out of a Mk3 Turbo.. the input and output shafts wouldn't turn, so I pulled the cases. It was in reverse, so I put it back into what should be neutral. Now it seems that it is stuck in 4th, as the input and output shafts turn at the same speed.
The syncro ring on (what I call) 4th, doesn't move like the synchros on the other gears. By "what I call 4th", I mean the front gear on the input shaft. What I want to do, is pull the input shaft out and see what is wrong with the syncro ring. Anyone got any tips for me? Following the manual, it says to basically pull the input and output shafts out as a unit, then pull them apart. I really don't want to pull all of the shift arms and forks and bearings and gears and crap.. just want to pull out the input shaft.
I think if I pull off the shift arm and fork on the hub for 3rd/4th, the input shaft might come out?? Anyone?
Help!
