T45 parts

[wolverine8490]

Anyone know where I can pick up T45 rebuild parts pretty cheap. From what I have seen and been told, I killed the shift forks in the tranny. Not sure how it happened, wasnt beating on it or anything, just shifted to 5th, and now every gear is hard as 4ell to get into.

Usually when you break a shift fork it won't do anything. Hard in and out of gear is usually clutch related.

Yeah I talked to a buddy of mine last night and he said the same thing at first. He told me that if it was a clutch, it should go through the gears ok when the car was off. So I went home last night to try a couple things, and the thing will not even go into nuetral. Its like it is always in a gear. I cant even get the shifter to go into 4th, 5th, and reverse.

Meh. I've seen clutches explode and shred and make it impossible for it to change gears.

yank the Fork cover and put a light in there.

Cool, I will check it out. It better not be as it is a king cobra with maybe 8000 miles on it. I dont drive it that hard, havent even eve dumped the clutch or anything. Thanks for the help.

they are not far and shipping is reasonable.

Awesome, I will give them a call. I just want to make sure the new parts are a little better than stock as I have heard the stock t45's are pretty much crap.
