NV4500 and NV241HD: Both ground to powder?
I call them "dogs" because I don't know the proper name. My tranny has been grinding going into fourth for about a year now, but I've been too poor to fix it. I was able to "ease" it in for a while, but no longer. Now the other gears are following suit. I am looking forward to a tax return, and have no fear of rebuilding myself, but I can't seem to find a replacement coupling mechanism to replace the one I fear I've murdered. Any thoughts?
Also, I was goofing around in 4 Low the other day. I eased up to a dirt berm and attempted to climb it when I heard two loud bangs. It reminded me of the sound of a cheap ratchet breaking the pawl. I am afraid I know what it was, but I do terribly hope I'm wrong...

I don't mind, location is Wilmington, North Carolina, at the beach and almost to the South Carolina line.

No, I know that the syncros are bad, hence the grinding; however, the grinding has happened for so long I fear I've damaged the engagement teeth that connect the counter shaft to the output shaft through the 4th gear set. I don't know what they're called. But if I can replace it while it's cracked open, I wanna.
