Ls tranny grind

[Billy_Wiseman]

So me and my friends both have ls trannys in our DAs and both of our cars grind when shifting at high rpms even with the clutch fully engaged. I was wondering if this is a common problem with these transmissions

Tranny grinding sounds like a crossdresser giving someone a lapdance

clutch has to be all the way down

mine does that too but mine is an 89

Its only 3rd gear that does it, for both of our cars

If you shifting quickly it will just do that, sometimes when you're quick shifting the main gear will not stop and when you try to go into the next gear it will not be synced and this will cause it to grind, It's the same basic idea behind clutchless shifting

3rd/4th synchro are issues, lol

Do I win?

 

[OGstackadoIIa]

Well, not really, as far as I know. I believe it's something that happens over time because we use that synchro more than the others and more aggressively, so it's the first to start wearing down.
Idk,I'm not a mechanic, just something I remember reading

Yeah I won

 

[OGstackadoIIa]

idk what you're talking about, lol

Thanks guys, next paycheck il take it up to the shop and get it looked at and get the synchros replaced. how much do you think that would run me? and should i replace all of them while the trans is torn apart?
