Intermittent shift shock changing gear

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

		folks,
this happens intermittently especially when i'm rough with the
gearchange (especially the lower gears) or when i let try to accelerate
in a high gear.

what is the symptom for:

1. wear in engine mounting?

2. wear in rear pittman (dogbone) arms?

3. wear in center bearing (prop shaft)

i have already changed the plastic bushing for the gearlever pivot and
also the plastic white spline bushing near the center prop shaft
coupling.

another issue i have is vagueness in selecting 3rd. or 5th gear - the
horizontal travel plane feels a bit loose. again this is intermittent
and happens when i downshift from 5th. to neutral when i cruise to a
stop. thereafter selecting 5th. usually involves an effort to push
similar to the reverse detent effort.
