Hi all-

I've got my spare-parts transmission apart.  Anyone know how to
tell a good synchro from a bad one?  I'm familiar with the little
teeth on the outer circumference, but the rest of the servo-type
synchro is a bit mysterious!  There also appears to be a coating
of some friction material where the shifter ring contacts the 
synchro assembly - is that supposed to be smooth or rough?  The
material/coating appears black and vaguely rubbery, with an
uneven surface.

Maybe somebody has a picture of a new one?

I'll be posting pictures of my adventures shortly.

Thanks a ton!
