Re: trouble removing synchro
Most likely, the snap ring, that holds the synchronizer hub in place on the shaft, has rolled up a slight burr on the spline at the front of snap ring groove.
A Drimmel tool with a small stone, to dress the burr off, will solve the problem.
Not much room to work with the file.

OR
piece of wood and rubber mallet. The synchro is getting replaced anyways right?

Re: trouble removing synchro
If you have a length of emery paper to wrap around the shaft, you can rotate the shaft and possible remove the burr on the snap ring edge.
I would not always assume that replacing the HUB is a foregone conclusion.

Re: trouble removing synchro
thank for the information will inspect mine and see which method will work best, I has planning on salvaging the whole assemble except the synchro as this and the rails are the only parts that seem damaged. I was in an accident in the Jeep, transmission worked perfect prior, i now want to transplant all the guts in to a new case, I haven done this before but looking forward to the challenge.
any opinion on these case offered... they advertise as WOF, but are they?

Re: trouble removing synchro
But does the case have WOF stamped on it? If not beware. Oh and while your at it, put a .040 spacer on the 2nd-3rd shift rail between the fork & case of the transmission to limit the travel of your shift.

Re: trouble removing synchro
Yep, that's mine that I bought. That logo that is a circle/star pattern is what I have. Like I said, just make sure you do not allow the 3 shift plates to expose themselves to the point you can see the "dimple" that is in the middle of them. Ignoring this and you take a chance of them popping up and jamming the shift. MIne was good in the 2nd gear mode, but not in the 3rd gear mode. Let me know, there is an easy fix.
A well schooled member here acknowledged the problem and his fix was what I was doing. His take was that these are repos sold in France. Photos of French Hotchkiss cases I saw had "WOF" stamped on them. This is all I know. The member that knew this or offer his take on this, lived in Germany. He was banned or he removed himself because he was harassed by a few here. If he was here, he would of cleared this up more than I can.

Re: trouble removing synchro
