Originally posted by JReebs96sport: I had another post about how my speedometer stopped working on my 98.5 SVT and now this new problem happened later today (the same day), but I don't think my 2 problems are related.
Anyways, I recently replaced with Pete and Tim my clutch (spec stage 1, my flywheel (fidanza), Steeda short shifter, and we put in Tims newer trans with a Torsen LSD. Everything felt great for the past few weeks until today... I was driving nice and easy going to shift from 2nd to 3rd and I had no 3rd gear. Then I tried 4th and nothing, then 5th and nothing. I coasted into a parking lot and my shifter moves around freely from 1 straight across to 5th and all around in a big circle. It is if I have no gears! Or one big sloppy gear!
From searching and Stazis over the phone diagnositic, my best guess is that my shift tower bolt came loose, but I have no idea how hard that is to fix?!?! Is it a 5 minute job or a 3 hour job? I need my car for work tomorrow! Any ideas or advice!?!? It can't be a blown diff or a bad trans... and I can't imagine my clutch going after a proper break in period. Plus when the clutch went last time is was nothing like this.
Thanks,
Jeff
sounds like the shifter cable came off, probably due to the short shifter, there is a little ball on the end of it that likes to break a lot.
