[Fot] Tr6 transmission

[Scott Janzen]

Thanks- that's what I gather. Unfortunately, I sliced open the oil filter this evening and it has a more than a fine sheen of metal.  
Rebuild time.

Scott,

Is this a race car? If so , toss the spring and don't look back! The factory put that in there to stop the "sizzle" as the factory described it, from the gear shifter. Totally superfluous on a racer...just one more thing to fail at the worst possible time.

Kinda lost my Sizzle myself...

I'm changing my transmission out (shifting was balky this past weekend) and noticed when I pulled the shift lever that the business end has a hole drilled in it with, in my case, a small spring hanging part way out.  I'm guessing there should have been a small steel ball in there (what else are springs for?).

If so, what holds the ball in and what purpose does this all serve?  Is there a way to put it back together?

Anyone have a good, complete lever assembly they want to part with?
