2nd gear syncro

[thestu]

Have you driven it. You say its not in the car?
A bit of second gear crunch is common, they are 20 year old boxes and driven enthusiastically.
If you pull it apart, you will need other parts and its not a very easy job.
I dont think that box came from me mate.

AAAh its that motor and box you have. That car sat around for a long time man. Defo try some decent gearbox oil. Its not woth pulling an 020 down unless you are gonna rebuild it properly.
