My M6 needs to be rebuilt (2nd, 5th, and 6th all grind shifting into gear). So my question is do I just need the rebuild kit or the kit and synchro assemblies (plus upgrades of course!)? This will be my first M6 rebuild and I wanna have all the parts ready, if thats even possible...

 

got to take it apart to tell.

 

1-2 syncro, 5-6 syncro, rebuild kit( should include new blocking rings and fork pads, if not, then you will need those too.) It may not be a bad idea to get a 3-4 syncro too, as they usually take the most abuse. You will need a press, split plate, and a long armed puller.

I just rebuilt another one last weekend, makes 6 total ive done, they really are a piece of cake. PM me if you have any more questions.

 

Why not just go with a rebuild package from Tick. Eliminate the guesswork and still do it yourself.

 

i got my rebuild kit from "the gear box" they have an ebay store with better deal and they have a real store lol but the ebay store cheaper and they have fast shipping on all

 

I just got my T56 rebuilt with parts from The Gear Box and so far it is flawless. Once the tranny was apart I had to call them back to get bearings and a 5th and 6th cluster gear. Great people to work with, if you have any questions I recommend you giving them a call.

 

Thanks for the replies guys. I already ordered my parts from the gear box and got them last week. I'm very happy with their service. Hopefully this weekend I'll pull the tranny and rebuild it!

 

Thanks for everyone's help! I successfully rebuilt my m6 this weekend! It now works flawlessly! The problem turned out to be several synchro keys fell out.
