My trans is grinding in 3rd if you don't match speeds. Who has parts for sale or knows where to buy them. The dealer doesn't show parts available anymore. I have the ability to rebuild it myself I just can't find parts.
Thanks
 
If you look hard enough you can buy the parts to convert it to the single blocker later mtx75, we have the early double blocker. However it will cost you like $400.

Your best bet is to get a trans with a good third gear and use it for parts. That is what I ended up doing. Working with svttour is your best chance to get it fixed up cheap and fast.

This is a list of all the parts you need to convert to the single blocker setup to replace third gear synro with what is available today, the dealer here became very familiar with me and helped me figure this all out it probably took us 2 hours combined, end result, not worth it:
