Zak, I visited Almost4x4 for a similiar problem, my tj manual shifter grinds in second gear when I shift fast as well as reducing gears. Omar suggested changing the gearbox with a used one and thankfully offered to look for one.
I cant afford the new gear at the moment, so I consulted one of my petrolhead friends, changed the gear oil, now shift a bit slowly, that is two step, once into neutral and another pull into second instead of of one single pull from first to second AND I am ok for the moment.
Do inform me please if you find some place reliable to change the synchros.

Ok folks, I think I can recommend the place I did my tranny rebuild. I am not 100% satisfied, cause it took them a long time, but that is due to the nature of issue I had (electric) which leaded to minced trans components (drove in desert for several months without 1st gear, not knowing, 3 times trans overheated with additional cooler), so they actually took the time to check every single wire and finally the verdict was - new PCM (aside from new tranny components). Since my PCM had no sticker, we had to test one by one and finally the right one found its place under hood. The warranty of 1 month they gave me expired today and trans is fine. If it fails later I will update. :)
The name is Hoorani located on BMW rd. I saw on their wall a certificate of appreciation from Sharjah Taxi dated 2012. They also sell different tranny parts.

I have a similar problem with 3rd gear - fine on the road as I shift from 2nd to 4th - different story in desert though so use 2nd an awful lot!! Maddie / Zac - if you find anywhere who can overhaul and replace synchromesh let me know - I will do the same!! See you in the sand.

Yes, you are quite right, I also suspect trouble with synchro. As it is manual gearbox, the repair should be quite easy, but be very careful with advices by others. :)Green Giant;32105 wrote:I have a similar problem with 3rd gear - fine on the road as I shift from 2nd to 4th - different story in desert though so use 2nd an awful lot!!
