i recently installed a t5 in my 93 vert and i have a problem and im not exactly sure what is the cause

when i put it in first it goes in fine, as i slowly let out the clutch it pops out, i can get it to take first if i hold it there but it will try popping out, but once its in there and im moving it will stay

also 2nd gear is completely unusable

i can put it in 2nd gear at a stop and slowly let out the clutch and it will just grind also when im driving it does the same gear, so i dont have 2nd at all

the rest of the gears work perfectly

so im curious what is the culprit of the tranny problems

thanks,
Keith

 

Where did you get the T-5? New/rebuilt or used? Could be clutch adjustment too...

 

i got it from a guy who wrecked his car
i didnt pay a whole lot for it so yeah

 

any ideas of what parts are broken/worn out?

 

the blocker rings for those gears may be damaged or sincronizer teeth ae bad on the gear hubs of those gears = possible internal tranny issue as long as clutch cable is properly set/ adjusted

 

yeah, i tried adjusting the clutch cable today, that didnt make it any better
it i adjusted it too much and it started to slip so i know its the tranny

looks like i get to learn how to rebuild a t5 lol

 

so i got the transmission pulled and i started taking it apart

im not really sure what is bad but maybe these pics would help someone tell me whats wrong so here they are

any help would be appreciated

 

if im not mistaken i think this would be the cause of all my problems..

a broken 1-2 shift fork

would that be the cause for the problems of not having 2nd and popping out of first?
