    3 speed 3.03 grinding in 1st & 2nd; not 3rd???

    Attempting to change the trans back to the one that came with my Bronco purchase. I hope the adjustments in the shifter rails will be enough to allow it to shift. I just don't have the energy to do it... The bearing noise of the current trans is audible in the bell housing and the back end of...

    3 speed 3.03 grinding in 1st & 2nd; not 3rd???

    First, I didn't realize if the trans gets shifted out of first while laying on the bench, that the roller pins would fall into the bottom of the case. My wife and I put it back together and it looked good. About the same time my cousin brought me another older trans. I say it is older because it...

    3 speed 3.03 grinding in 1st & 2nd; not 3rd???

    It grinds or growls only when driving, however depending on throttle pressure it will seems to disappear. This noise comes and goes in both first and second. It does not make any noise in third. If it is just a bearing issue, I think I will run it for a while longer and trade up to a NV3550...

    3 speed 3.03 grinding in 1st & 2nd; not 3rd???

    My trans started grinding in 1st and 2nd, but smooth and quiet in 3rd. It also makes noise while coasting with the clutch in going down a hill in 1st. Before I take it apart, is there anything I can do before taking it apart? I did change the fluid a few weeks ago and checked level again. It is...

    3 speed manual help..

    I have a conversion floor shift, shift rails are off at this point to confirm my issue. I read the shop manual prior to removal, and not the first time I have done this. Yet I forgot to leave it in gear during R&I... I am guessing as Paul stated, my rails shifted. Is there anything I can do...

    3 speed manual help..

    I did not force anything going together. But yes your correct, I took it out in neutral. It seems to be stuck in 2nd. No noise when running in the air, which surprised me. What can I do to fix it? Oh, I was replacing the rear main seal so just remove and reinstall, no work to trans.

    3 speed manual help..

    I removed the trans, 3 speed manual factory trans, and when I reinstalled it the gear selector is jammed. The rear gear selector works, front will not move, stuck in neutral. Can anyone give me an idea of what happened? I didn't drop it, pull on the shaft, although I did stand it on the...

    1968 Bronco Locking Brake Issue

    Mine will lock up at the master Cylinder if my rod length is just slightly too long between the power booster and the master Cylinder, but only after about twenty five miles or more.

    Seat Question re: Corbeau Baja SS

    I even installed them with the factory base allowing them to tumble forward, however the head rest will hit the windshield and not allow enough space to climb in the rear.

    Corbeau Seats, Free shipping

    I have a problem with the recliner gear set, it seems the teeth are leaning and not at a 90 degree angle allowing the seat not to hold in position. I have the LG1 seats. Is this a warranty situation for replacement? I am surprised that the teeth are so small. Please contact me asap. 812-568-1354...
