Well in a nutshell it will be a 5th gear syncro set, Full set of gearbox bearings, Both shaft seals, and labour to strip it down/rebuild it. Plus any other seals/gaskets. I can do gearbox rebuilds at home

cool how much will it cost for u to do it mate

How bad is it mate?

If it's not too bad Amsoil MTF has been known to remedy the crunch on quite a number of occasions. Even if it's quite bad it can make a significant improvement. I've had a reasonable 5th gear crunch on two LSD boxes now. Amsoil MTF cured both

It's the cheapest option and worth giving a go first definitely.

hi mate ive never had the car on the road to test which is frustrating previous owner said he had to double clutch and it worked fine

Sounds like my silver lude and MTF fixed that

Worth a punt otherwise your next cheapest option would be to drop in a known good box.

What these guys say

To be honest, I would only rebuild my own gearboxes as its cost effective for me. The best options for you is the MTF and then the box swap.
