Default RE: DIY: Transmission Work NV5600


Once you have all the pieces back into the synchro I recommend putting the clamp back on so it can’t fall apart again.
Assembly and installation is the reverse of removal…I wouldn’t do that to you, I hate when manuals say that.
When you are ready to begin putting things back together the first order of business is to clamp the 5th gear synchro back together. Once you have that clamped back together you can hang the gears again. Once you have the two sets of gears hanging and aligned you can begin putting the shift rails back on. Once you have the shift rails back on you can set that whole assembly back into the bell housing.

I waited until after I had it set down to put in the crossover bar for 5th and 6th. Once you have it set down and are sure all of the shift rails are in the correct place you can put the two bolts for the crossover arm back in.

After you get those tightened you are ready to put the main case back on. I used the cherry picker to put it back on slowly to make sure nothing was binding. I set it all the way down to make sure everything would slide together nicely and then lifted it back up to use the case to hold the shift cup at the right height, that way I only had to worry about turning it back and forth to make the hole line up as I put the roll pin back in.

I left the case at this height to put the sealant in.

After I got the sealant in there I set the case back down and then proceeded to torque the 5 exterior bolts. Put a little bit of sealant on any bolts that are going back into anything that has fluid.
