Thread: need t5 work done

    need t5 work done

    I have a wc t5 that I rebuilt. But after putting it back together I found that it won't shift into gear. Looking for any recommendations on where or who to take it to. Could be something simple or I might've screwed it up. Either way I got a new job and I don't have time to tear it back down. Any help or input would be greatly appreciated.

    If someone can get you in touch with wick (Rob) he might be able to do it for you. He did the Tremec in my old '94 Cobra before I bought it and it shifted very nicely behind the 388 RWHP 347 stroker.

    Narrowed the problem down to an issue with third gear in the main shaft not spinning freely. Can anyone get me in contact with wick or refer me to anyone else.

    I haven't talked to Rob (Wick) in a while since I have been banished to China all year, but I did "hear" he didn't have a place to work on them a while ago. Not sure if that got cleared up or not. I hope so, I have a couple of projects for him this winter ;)

    Car has been at a standstill for a while but getting ready to dig back into it. Has anyone ever had any work done by hoss's gear shop? He is local to me but have never heard anything about work or prices. Or anyone else who knows anyone who can help with this project would be greatly appreciated

    I know my buddy took his dad's 4 speed from his '65 Comet to Hoss's, and was extremely pleased with the work. I know of a few other guys who say the same thing. I don't know his prices though.
