5TH SPEED SYNCHRONIZER ASSEMBLY

INSPECTION

SYNCHRONIZER SLEEVE AND HUB




1. Install the synchronizer sleeve on the hub and check that they slide smoothly.
2. Check that the sleeve is free from damage.
3. Check for wear of the hub front end (surface in contact with the 5th speed gear).

CAUTION: Replace the synchronizer hub and sleeve as a set.

SYNCHRONIZER KEY AND SPRING




1. Check for wear of the synchronizer key center protrusion.
2. Check the spring for weakness, distortion and breakage.

ASSEMBLY




1. Assemble the synchronizer hub, sleeve and key noting their direction.




2. The synchronizer sleeve has teeth missing at six places. Assemble the hub to the sleeve so that the center tooth between the two missing teeth will touch the synchronizer key.




3. Install the synchronizer spring so that the stepped portions will rest on the synchronizer keys.

CAUTION: When installing the synchronizer springs, make sure they are not facing the same direction.
