Thanks for the feedback, mate. Really appreciate it. Good to know they can be trouble free. Mine's only don't 35,000. 1st to 2nd and 3rd to 2nd are actually the best actions in mine. More often than not, it will grind its way into third from any gear, regardless of speed (which to me sounds like poor clutch action - also been replaced once), the shift from neutral into first is abnormally loud and it's pot luck of it will even let me select reverse. On top of that, there is what can only be described as a chirping noise (high-pitched - like there's a cicada in the cabin with me) from the box as the revs build under load above 2700 (bearing? Again?). The amount of gear chatter it has in neutral is crazy! It's not like I expect an industry leading gearbox... One tht did what it was meant to do would suffice.
Hey mate, so whats the latest with these gearbox/clutch issues?? I do not come on these forums that often and presume you have been on the ls1/ls2 sites? Surely they couldnt get a brand new box and clutch to come out like that from new ??(do you think these problems come from incorrect installation??)
Once again all the best with it and getting Holdent to support you (you would think they would want to know whats wrong as much as you)
