RE: Cen GST 7.7 3rd gear
I held the truck up and slowly give it throttle and can only feel it shift once. I just finished that mod and its still not getting 3rd. I cant see anything wrong everything seems to be working but i know it not getting into 3rd gear 1 shift is all i hear i even turned the screws to adjust 3rd gear all the way in just to make sure that shift im hearing is second and it was still shifting to second. After the mod i started at 7 turns out and did the adjusting in 1/8th turn eash time till the screws were hitting the clutch bell again. Now im thinking i should not have done the mod casue if there is something wrong maybe i could have sent it in to be fixed i just got the truck saterday. There must have been some sort of warr... Oh well guess ill be buying a tranny off ebay to see if that solves the problem. If anyone has any other ideas please let me know. Also im noticng my pinion gears on the clutch bell for the motor are already half worn but the spur gears are fine anyone think it would be a good idea to use chain lube on these?? they seem to ware fast and i did set the mesh and all before running it and each time iv re assebled it must be from the center diff lock. But i think chain lube would be a nice help for this. I dont know i just feel there was something wrong with my tranny from the start.
