Yeedogga Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Hi Guys, My gearbox in my ECR33 is crunching badly shifting from 3rd to 4th when under power. I'm assuming it is a synchro issue as the rest of the gears shift fine. Can anyone recommend a workshop in/near Sydney that have experience repairing these boxes?

Duncan Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Award gearbox and diff in Seven Hills are excellent, and reasonably priced. They have done heaps of RB boxes. But before you reco the box, try using redline lightweight shockproof oil. It is pretty good at masking synchro problems. Or just go granny shifting Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/368995-gearbox-repairer-recommendation/#findComment-5882798 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeedogga Posted June 26, 2011 Author Share Posted June 26, 2011 Great, thanks Duncan Ill give them a try. I have put Royal Purple fluid in it and it hasn't improved. It will still grind even if I double clutch on the upshift.. grrr Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/368995-gearbox-repairer-recommendation/#findComment-5882890 Share on other sites More sharing options...
PIG747 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I used this place to re-co my box 2 weeks ago. I got them to put a full set of bearings through it plus replace 3rd-4th-5th synchro's. I dropped it off wed morning and it was ready thursday arvo. It set me back $1100 which is alot better than risking buying a second hand box BEARS Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/368995-gearbox-repairer-recommendation/#findComment-5884120 Share on other sites More sharing options...
