| What's your question? |
I have a problem with shifting into first gear. Doesn't fully engage in first. All other gears are fine.
|
| Details: |
From a stop, I shift into first and get a clunk. As I release the clutch, it clunks again. As I begin to take off, the transmission seems to hesitate and then jerks forward. No problems with any other gears. |
Answers:
- Replace the 1st/2nd gear shifter fork and have the fork alignment between the gears set. By: bobunser on: 9-14-2008
- when replacing shifter fork do not use cheap aftermarket u get same results as before.jims or baker are good but pricey,or just stock hd is fine. By: Guest on: 9-19-2008
- when you check the trans make sure that on the shifter shaft there are no burs.this wont allow the shifter forks to slide.also make sure that the shift cam is ok.the clunk you here is only the compensating sprocket engageing.and check the gears and the pimary.
