I need some help with my tranny. On my 79 spitfire, which is really a 78, I've lost 2nd and 3rd gear syncros, or perhaps a fork. It simply won't go into those gears without trouble. I had a mechanic

There are those who will tell you to do the clutch (me included if it's not new) while you have the gearbox out of the car. The parts will cost you about $130 or so. It's probably worth not having t

This interests me to the degree that I just received my newly rebuilt half-shafts from TeamTriumph. Though I never really noticed if the ujoint flanges were in alignment relative to eachother, is th

Yes, we were discussing this very thing. My confusion lay in whether the two 'crosses' of the u-joint were to be in alignment with one another or 45 degrees out of synch. The consensus is that they

This is clear. It refers to the driveshaft. I was wondering/asking about the ujoint and their flanges on the half shafts on either side of the differential. Though, now thinking about it, doesn't se

Vic, Brad, et all..... Firstly, Vic, STOP that work stuff, we're talking about Spits here. jeesh. I'd think that the halfshaft fall as they might. (sorry, I had to). It's the "prop shaft" that we're

On the subject of paying someone else to fix the gearbox... I had some similar symptoms a few months ago. Turned out to be the selector fork (I'm not suggesting that's what's wrong with yours - but
