quote:What was the clearance with the worn gear (before repair) and new syncro?
That configuration never really existed, because I didn't buy a new synchro..... but....
I did test with the worn gear and the FIRST GEAR synchro, which (per Lloyd Butfoy) never wears.
Clearance was the same - .000"
This, and other measurements told us that it was the Cone, and not the synchro that was bad.

I have seen some calculations that show that for every .001" of wear on (either the cone or ring), the end-gap will decrease by nearly .010"
