Lately my tranny has been acting up. it wants to stick in 1st and second, and sometimes catches and grinds everyonce in a while when i put it in some gears. i havnt replaces my tranny fluid since i had my tranny rebuilt and my act 2600 put in, wich has been about a year ago. what do you guys think?

What's in it? syncromesh? If not change it out and put that in and see if that helps.

I've heard about the problems with their customer service. I have decided just to fabricate my own parts with the pictures and advice he supplies. I figure that way I avoid situations like yours. Sorry to hear that, update us if you do end up recieving them.

well i finally figured out what was wrong, one of the tranny bolts came loose and the tranny was moving about an inch away from the block. luckily the bolt was still in there, and i tightend the front bolt back up and it shifting smooth again.

Holy jumping trannies, batman! That's the type of stuff that scares me when I find it. Good thing nothing bad happened from it (broken parts, ect) I just put in a homemade slave cylinder rod last night, and it made the world of difference on my tranny.

If it's moving an inch I'd say there's more than one tranny bolt loose. Check 'em all and put some thread locker on there to make sure those skanks stay put where they belong.

we checked the other ones, that i could get to and they were fine, i was thinking someone else was going to be seriously wrong with, luckly i found it before it hurt something else.
