Default Any T56 Rebuilders Out There?

Does anyone here rebuild the T56? I would like to chat with other rebuilders of this 6 speed. Please send me a PM or my email address posted below.

Thanks, Jody

Yup, since 92-93.

They tend to eat sync's and the wimpy cast alloy shift forks.

In high hp/tq builds, its agood idea to add 0.015 to 0.025" of additional cluster shaft preload. I also like to "de-horn" the hub's, micro polish the main shaft bearing surfaces and if its a performance build used in road racing or autoX, I have even EDM'd some weight out of the gears..... more like reverse, first and second. For max effort, cryo'd gear set, main and cluster shafts.

I've used the RPM kits with good success. The bearing kit run around $195 and the sync's from the dealer were......??...... 25/per for the good multi composite three ring sets.

I need to find a good guy locally (here in northern CA) to do a rebuild/upgrades on mine over the winter while the car is apart.
