The difference between the Premium and Value is this rebuild includes REM ISF Mircopolishing of all gears, shafts, hubs, sleeves, and engagement teeth. This process will improve gear efficiency as there will be less friction. Less friction means temps and stress on the gear teeth will be reduced. This process will also allow for smoother sleeve-to-gear engagement, which means your shift quality will be improved as well.
This rebuild includes ALL new synchro assemblies with the latest revision from Getrag. We will also make modifications to the sleeve ramp rates to allow for more accurate synchronization, and polish the sleeves and hubs for the smoothest shift possible. A huge amount of time will be invested with the synchros for this rebuild to insure accurate placement of the synchro outer ring teeth to the sleeve teeth during your shift. This is what we love to do and is a detail hard to find as many will only blindly pop in new parts without checking operation. Check our synchro blueprinting here. Hub and sleeves are also the latest revision and include improved key and ball design for smoother and more reliable operation.
Up to 3 new gears will be included with this rebuild as new 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gears are important to ensure sharp engagement teeth for accurate and smooth engagement of the sleeve.
All seals are replaced and unit is cleaned, blasted and clear coated for a like new look.
UPGRADES:
1-2 and 3-4 fork pin holes are threaded and modified to use bolts for reliability.
All synchros are replaced with the latest revision from Getrag. Friction rings are modified for longer life and more efficiency for smooth shifting.

This unit is covered by our 14 month, unlimited mileage warranty.
Core unit must be in a condition where it can be rebuilt using average wear parts. In other words, no completely broken cores! Core that works, but grinds gears, or makes noise is acceptable, but inspection of the unit will need to be performed.
