Installation
WARNING! Before installing
synchronizer assemblies on shafts is
very important to be acquainted with
their design features and be able to
identify themselves as well.
1st/2nd and 3rd/4th Speed Synchronizer
1. They look exactly alike, having as the only
difference an anti-escape relief existing on the
3rd/4th speed synchronizer hub splines, not
present on the 1st/2nd synchronizer.
WARNING! Identify the anti-escape relief
on the 3rd/4th speed synchronizer hub
in order to prevent from swapping when
installing. This misassembling can cause
3rd speed to slip out of gear.
2. Install the 3rd/4th speed synchronizer
assembly with the hub anti-escape relief side
facing the 3rd speed gear.
3. The synchronizer hub most prominent side
should face the sleeve chamfer side.
