Hey, I pulled my onld 1.3 with trans this weekend to make room for my fresh and new 1.6 8v. Since the trans is out I was going to rebuild it, just one of those "might as well do it while its out" kind of things. I bought the kit with synchros but the rebuld threads that I have found only have info on replacing the bearings. I haven't torn into the case yet so the answer might be obvious once I'm in there but, is changing out the synchros a trick or are there any special tools needed beyond the tools needed to replace the bearings?
Any pics would help, thanks.

Pretty much the same. I did one a year ago. My best advise is to get yourself a nice long workbench and put some towels on it and lay out the parts in order of removal. I've been an auto tech since 1990 and I even lost my place for a couple minutes with the mainshaft disassembly. I put bearings in a Tracker tranny about 2 years ago and didn't do the synchros....big mistake.

Thanks, thats what I needed to hear.
So there is nothing special about the synchros in the stack up, just replace as they come off the shaft in the same order and orientation and I should be ok. I'm sure it will become more obvious once I crack into it and see what I'm working on.
Thanks agian.
