17. Assemble 1-2 synchro hub sleeve, springs, struts and detent balls.
CAUTION: The 1-2 synchro hub and sleeve can be installed backwards if care is not exercised. One side of the hub has a small diameter shoulder around the hub bore. Make sure this side of the hub faces the forward end of the output shaft. In addition, one side of the synchro sleeve is marked First Gear Side. Be sure this side of the sleeve will face first gear after installation.
Starting 1-2 Synchro On Shaft:

Pressing 1-2 Synchro Assembly Onto Output Shaft:
19. Press 1-2 synchro onto output shaft using suitable size pipe tool and shop press.
CAUTION: Take time to align the synchro, ring and sleeve as hub the is being pressed onto the shaft. The synchro ring can be cracked if it becomes misaligned.
20. Install interim ring.
Installing 1-2 Synchro Hub Snap Ring:
21. Install new 1-2 synchro hub snap ring as follows:
a. Snap rings are available in thicknesses from 1.80 mm to 2.00 mm (0.070 to 0.078 inch).
b. Install thickest snap ring that will fit in shaft groove.
c. Verify that snap ring is completely seated in groove before proceeding.
Second Gear Synchro Ring Installation:
22. Install second gear synchro ring in 1-2 synchro hub and sleeve. Be sure synchro ring is properly seated in sleeve.
23. Install synchro friction cone and synchro cone in synchro ring.
Second Gear Bearing Installation:
24. Install second gear needle bearing on shaft.
Second Gear Instllation:
25. Install second gear onto shaft and bearing. Make sure that second gear is fully seated on synchro components.
Install Two-Piece Thrust Washer:
26. Install two-piece thrust washer. Be sure washer halves are seated in shaft groove and that washer lugs are seated in shaft lug bores. Also, ensure that the i.d. grooves and markings noted during removal are facing the correct direction.
Starting Retaining Ring Over Two-Piece Thrust Washer:
27. Start retaining ring around two-piece thrust washer. Make sure that the locating dimple is between the thrust washer halves.
Seating Thrust Washer Retaining Ring:
28. Seat thrust washer retaining ring with plastic mallet.
Third Gear Bearing Installation:
29. Install third gear needle bearing on shaft.
Installing Third Gear:
30. Install third gear on shaft and bearing.
Third Speed Synchro Ring Installation:
31. Install third speed synchro ring on third gear.
32. Assemble 3-4 synchro hub, sleeve, springs, struts and detent balls.
CAUTION: The 3-4 synchro hub and sleeve can be installed backwards if care is not exercised. One side of the hub has shoulders around the hub bore. Make sure this side of the hub is facing the front of the shaft. In addition, one side of the sleeve has grooves in it. Be sure this side of sleeve is also facing the front of the shaft.
