My tranny leaks fluid like a sieve. You can see it dripping off the bottom of the housing. I'm going to check the seals when I change the clutch, but I though these things were tested.
Hmmm, I had the problem with the 3-4 synchro and when I picked up the car it wouldn't shift from 4-3 so I took it back. Next day the mechanic called dodge and told them that he just replaced the 3-4 synchro and he didn't even get to finish the conversation when the engineers told him to replace the fork... The forks are REALLY, REALLY, soft from what he is telling me. If you like to slam through the gears, you will screw it up fast and the synchros will follow..
a side note though... Pennzoil synchromesh is really great shit.... once the tranny heats up... I can shift through the gears with my pinky after I sprained it moving a stack of papers from once side of my desk to the other at work to look busy...

My fork just went out too, is there a TSB for it...If there is, could you please find out. So I have something to back me up when I got to the dealorship..
