'66 Fury I
Active Member
When I rebuilt the A-745 in my '66 Fury, I was unable to locate new synchronizer rings. I think I got it all done to specs from the FSM, but it will "drop out" of second gear (it is three-on-the-tree). I have Dexron for lube, but am wondering if a change of lube might make an improvemant. Several times i have read that Type-F fluid has different friction characteristics, but would it shorten the life of other components. I also know that some have used 90 wt oil, but would that worsen the problem. One other thought- would a stronger spring in the lockout/detents prevent the dropout? Thanke in advance for the good advice. Lindsay
