Hi All,

Whilst waiting for my new bolts to enable me to fit the ring gear to my new mfactory lsd I thought I'd take a look at the box and replace any worn components.

Has anyone with experience of repairing gearboxes got an opinion on whether I should replace this gear? My feeling is yes but I'm talking myself out of spending more money. Thoughts? Will replacing the sychro alone solve occasional high rpm shifting issues or should o replace the gear and slider?

Definite signs of wear on that synchro, would be mad to remove and rebuild the box again for future problems? Personally I'd do it for peace of mind.

As above, I'd do it whole box is open!

I ordered a new gear last night so I'll change it whilst it's apart. Tbh the 1/2 and 3/4 sliders and hubs show signs of wear and pitting so ideally I'd replace those but it's just the cost and lead time.
