4-speed sweet spot
I've got a 66 F-250 with a 390 in it. I've posted some pictures a while back. I don't know if this is the correct forum to post this in but I didn't see a tranny forum.
Third gear on this truck has a sweet spot. What I mean by that is that if you don't hit it just right you're fighting and wiggling to get the bugger in gear. It can be VERY frustrating. I've sucessfully rebuilt two auto trannies and put in a coupla clutches but I'm not really all that familiar with a manual transmission.
So my question is, from the way that I've described this do you understand what is wrong? Is it a simple fix and can you describe to me what I would need to do to repair it/replace?
Any help is appreciated.
TIA
Dusty
That is terrible, sad to hear about him.
