Cool, all we need is a known source for syncro rings and dog rings, and we can do a complete rebuild.
I did some looking around and there is one place that I called and they are going to check some part numbers for me. Because some of the parts that I needed had the same part numbers as the svt focus, and they make syncros for svt. But I have not confirmed that they will work yet.
Ok, so here is the update on the transmission, I also found a crack in the case so I am just doing an 05 transmission swap. So I will be parting the 02 transmission out. I do have all of the shifting forks, syncros are good and and I have an un used obx differentaial that I am selling ( keeping my quaife). I really dont know what to ask for transmission parts, but I will sell the obx for 150.00, let me know
Sorry about discovering the transmission crack, you can't find a local welder to repair the crack? I do quite a bit of aluminum repair work on engines / transmission for a local dismantler here in Columbus. It's not difficult work. Were you ever able to locate a source for the syncro's and dog rings?
I called around to different manual transmission shops. And found out threw part numbers that the svt and mini have the same parts. the one shop I was working with helped me find out if the svt parts would fit. Also they have svt parts available, not mini.
Also the large bearings that hold the input shaft and gears into the back of the case, I found a cheaper replacment it is made by sfk and the part # is 6206 2rsnrjem they were 20 buck .
I will most likely take that OBX diff off of your hands. Give me a week or two to figure things out, and ill get with you ASAP.
syncro part number is 002.8.0621.01 that is the part number for all of the syncros shift fork 1 is 285.9.0320.90 1/1, shift fork 2 is1/2 285.9.0296.90, shift fork 3 is 285.9.0328.90 1/2, shift fork 4 is 285.9.0255.90 1/2 hope that helps, syncros were around 200.00 and forks were 125.00 each
I am doing the same thing on my 03 MCS, the 05 tranny swap Have all my parts assembled, tranny, FX400 clutch, Fidanza flywheel and the Phantom grip LSD.
i hope i can still reach someone about this on here. i have just opened my trans because i lost reverse. found shifter fork for reverse broken. by reading your thread, im not happy that mini doesn't sell replacement parts. 1r53, the parts you have listed, who can i order them from and which fork is for reverse?
I found this page of Ford transmission rebuild kits. But it says to call for information on the Focus SVT Getrag 6 speed. Ford Manual transmission Rebuild kits & Parts } Ford overhaul parts quality parts - Drivetrain.com
Getrag 6 spd. Any chance a repair manual is available for my 2006 Cooper S Getrag 6 spd. I have a bad bearing and thats about all. I just want to do the rebuild with more knowledge than what I know on my Old Chevy manual rebuilds from my past.
