Fifth Speed Synchronizer Assembly
INSPECTION
Synchronizer Sleeve and Hub
1. Install the synchronizer sleeve on the hub and check that they slide smoothly.
2. Check that the sleeve is free from damage at its inside front and rear ends.
3. Check for wear of the hub front end (surface in contact with the fifth speed gear).
CAUTION: Replace the synchronizer hub and sleeve as a set.
Synchronizer Key and Spring
1. Check for wear of the synchronizer key center protrusion.
2. Check the spring for weakness, deformation and breakage.
ASSEMBLY
1. Assembly the synchronizer hub, sleeve and key noting their direction
2. The synchronizer sleeve has teeth missing at six portions. Assemble the hub to the sleeve so that the center tooth between the two missing teeth will touch the synchronizer key.
3. Install the synchronizer spring so that its protrusion may be engaged in the groove of the synchronizer key.
CAUTION: When installing the synchronizer springs, make sure that the front and rear ones are not faced in same direction.
