np 435

[ROKRAWL]

I have a np 435 in my bronco and am having trouble with the second gear. I had it by a shop today and they guessed it was the synchros, say its common for a 435 to lose 2nd. I was wondering what everyone thought would be the best idea. rebuild? fix? replace? what should i look for if i go used or to a salvage yard? thanks for all the help in advance.

I would try having it rebuilt. Who is to say the one from the junkyard is any better then what you have now.

I also would rebuild, with the years of service it has on it, its probably due, plus no future worrys and a junkyard one may not be any better.. at least with a rebuild you wont be pulling it again in the possible near future
