Reply to "3rd gear grind and pop out"

Yeah the wife hopes it’s no syncro! I was able to get to the bottom bolt on the trunion (took a 15/16 wrench perfect). It did turn maybe 1/4 turn, but the stinkin wrench is so thick in that small area making it hard to tell if the outer part of the wrench was preventing further turning or if it was at max tightness. I greased the rod too. Not feeling well I can’t get out and drive, so as far as testing for grinding while shifting into 3rd I started it up and then shifted into 3rd a few times with no grinding noise experienced, at least until the wife was grinding at me for running it in the garage. I guess the real test will be to drive it again, maybe later this week. Funny though, when I had it out it always seemed the 3rd gear grind was worse after a good warmup but maybe just coincidence or my aging imagination.
