zeitgeist57 Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 At least the tranny is out already. 95% of people would try to band-aid it down the road... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKilbourne Posted August 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 At least the tranny is out already. 95% of people would try to band-aid it down the road... I drove it home in 4th. I wonder why it wouldn't go into any other gear?..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ImUrOBGYN Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 You gotta lay off the launch control, man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRTurbo04 Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Time to call RPM. Not sure if you are referring that he NEEDS a RPM transmission or not but, this is a quote from his for sale add I am thinking about selling my toy. It's a dark shadow grey 03 Cobra. Solid axle, ported blower, Corbeau seats, supporting mods, built T-56 from RPM in Indiana with a SPEC stage 3 clutch. Hope its a somewhat reasonable fix bud.

DKilbourne Posted August 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Time to call RPM. It is going back there soon New counter shaft and input shaft for sure. Hopefully the rest is ok. Looks to be. Hell, the fluid even came out clear without any chunks. That really surprised me. I guess they all stayed at the bottom of the case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKilbourne Posted August 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 You gotta lay off the launch control, man. Haha. That was going from 2nd to 3rd. If anyone has ever done this, they know the feeling/noises. For a split second it's in gear, then the whole car shakes and it's magically out of gear. This followed by a nice metallic noise coming from underneath. Yeah, it's fun :gabe: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKilbourne Posted August 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Hope its a somewhat reasonable fix bud. It's a T-56. It's "reasonable" for fixing one, but not cheap by any means. Oh well. It held up to a lot of abuse and hopefully will continue to hold after it's fixed. The good news is that anyone that needs a 26 spline alignment tool for a Ford now has one available to borrow..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DKilbourne Posted August 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 How much of the repair are they going to warranty? It's been 4+ years and it's due to me being hard on it, so probably none. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's fun :gabe: been there done that 3 times in my SS, the last time it was stuck in 3rd gear. that counter shaft alone is $1500 from a dealership that doesn't include the bearings either, Goodale had them for $370ish I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
