Comparing manual trans options - variables other than gear ratios?

I remember. I read every post in your thread. I say it’s fixable. Why they didn’t/couldn’t fix it I can’t say but it’s a gear box. They’ve been around forever. You can’t get a more basic design.

And if by some chance it couldn’t be fixed, someone should have been able to identify the issue and figure out a way to correct the part in production rather than in the field.
I have one. Brand new in the box sitting in my garage. Had it for 5 years. Haven’t used it yet. But I will say this. If I have these problems that matthon did, I’ll be sending it to Paul Cangialosi. I would have liked to see what he said if he was able to inspect matthon’s transmission.

Anyways if I have those problems, that’s where it’s going.
