Will be following closely behind you very soon as I went to the taxman yesterday & came out very happy...………………….
Been had the very same brake upgrade kit on my wish list for over 2 years so the time is nigh to purchase!
Completed the tare-down of the T56 Magnum and got the main shaft setting on the bench. A little press work and I can get to the synchros.
Now this is the kind of info concerning TOB preload that needs to be known IMHO....the min TOB preload to set so a user can then adjust this for preference between the min usable TOB preload & the max TOB preload of 1".I am replacing the second gear synchro. Most likely because I has too lazy to set the clutch slave cylinder ( throw out bearing) correctly. I had just 1/2” preload and I ran it through the summer. No problems with anything until second gear started acting up. Had to push the clutch pedal to the floor and slip, carefully into second before I parked it.
Lesson Learned! I will install the new super wazoo carbon synchros in the first 4 gears along with bronze shift fork pads and be good to go. Then I will shim the slave cylinder to between 3/4 and 1” preload. That should raise the clutch operation off the floorboard.
Ps. If I nibbled the teeth on the synchronizer or second gear enough to have rounded the points I will replace them also.
They look good. Just curious, why shorties?
And heaven forbid you ask a question that has been asked 5 years ago....[emoji38]

As mentioned earlier, the reason behind reading over the forum rules!Lol i've seen some of the threads with people asking questions that were previously asked Jgt58. People need to calm down and be a little more understanding, some of us haven't been on here long enough to understand how to navigate the forums.
Settle down Bevis..... I was just kidding! [emoji23]Well like it or not, those are the rules of this site and have been since the very beginning. Therefore, it is what it is and nothing is going to change that. So either learn to accept it or just move on, as nobody is pointing a gun towards anybody's head forcing them to stay lol.
