Reverse is dead

[dhminer]

Why Pumaspeed? Clarke transmissions in Orlando, FL does rebuilds / mods to the IB6 transmission. Of course you can also find a used unit for sub 1k prices most of the time.

I would 100% go with Clarke and have them install a LSD while they’re at it.

Sorry for the delay, I found the culprit for my transmission issues stuck to the debris magnet.

I can either rebuild the reverse synchro or I can call puma speed and order a new transmission. Spoiler alert I already called puma speed

Did you grind/crunch going into reverse more than once, or did this happen all on it's own?

Honestly I never abused reverse and it didn't show any signs of failure it just broke. I could understand shearing all three of those keepers if I was going 10 miles an hour and I threw it in reverse or something but I didn't.

The only good thing about doing this job is I got to see that sexy ass clutch and flywheel again.

My favorite pic...
Reverse is failing here too. It locks up once in a while, seems maybe the lockout mechanism engages. Hard to get any gear regardless of clutch pedal.

Time for a Clark unit*

So I rebuilt this motor mount about two oil changes ago less than 10,000 mi and it's already failing again. S280 (2) Mountune (0)

I think you need the stiffer inserts. Ask Ron if the Whoosh inserts would fit this. They look to be the same size, but IDK.

Do you have upgraded passenger side and/or transmission mounts as well?

I have the energy suspension inserts in both side mounts. And I just ordered the complete Vibra Tech set from Whoosh. Fingers crossed Ron sent them overnight.

Did you buy all the Vibra mounts? If so...you will like them ALOT* I know I do!

Also, it doesn't look like you lubed it.

I assure you the mount was full of lube and dirt when removed, I cleaned it prior to inspection.

Well my PumaSpeed transmission is broke. Synchros in 1 and 2 gear are toast. Has anyone used https://sync-trans.com/products/syn-ib6-carbon-synchro-set-1-6-fiesta-st-ib6-14-18 with any luck?
