1st gear (10Mph) roll against the 03 Cobra I smoke so hard last fall, he wanted punished again tonight, he got a car and a half jump on me, but I pulled hard on him and was up to his back bumper by the top of 2nd, shifted to third, let the clutch out and CHUNCH, clunk, clunk clunk clunck clunk ...



No more 3rd gear. Was able to drive home (without 3rd), but it sounded like someone put marbles in my tranny... 1st and 5th gear are fine, but it grinds like a mother shifting into 2nd, syncro is probably toast somehow and 4th gear goes in but really hard and about 1/2" to the left of where it usually is. Any idea what I did?

1-2, 3-4 and 5-r are all paired up, sounds like may have broken 3rd gear, the 3-4 hub and slider are still kinda working and 3rd is right next to 2gear. its good that it still moves too

Ouch, nice job toasting the tranny. That will probably be my next fate. I've replaced and fixed about everything else and I'm getting bad second gear grinds. So I'm just awaiting the enevitable as usual
