[QUOTE="ravenknight, post: 8767224, member: 11643"] well another one here, after driving for an hour or so, cant get into reverse without grinding, sometimes 1st is a bear and definitly no high rpm quick shifts, this starting occuring about 2 months ago, last summer it was fine. also note a new factory clutch kit, tob, fork and flywheel last spring of 2008. The advisor called me and said the clutch was going bad due to a fork being bent, wtf, he said looks like due to bad previous install. So all new parts, drove great, I could slam gears with ease, have always had slight trouble when sitting and first go to put into reverse but seems like every stang I have owned had this problem. So fast forward, I stumbled onto this thread and changed the fluid to RP syncromesh and seemed great even reverse was easier, well yea that lasted a couple hours, decided to square up against a buddy and went to slam second and hit the wall, wtf. then parked and went to back up and grind slam into reverse. So Now I guess I will try a new clutch cable, quadrant and firewall adjuster I will install. If that dont work I am pulling the trans and doing a spec 3+ clutch kit and spline. I guess it could be a twisted spline but why would the RP help then not? I am drawing the conclusion that the DEX III is fine but has to be changed every few months of driving? [/QUOTE]
