Alright got it pulled out in about an hour today.Popped the front bearing retainer off and the input shaft freed up but the shifter was still stuck. Saw some chunks of metal laying in the bottom of the case. Right now all im hoping for is the 4th gear synchro just came apart and fouled things up

 

That will at the least be cheaper than a T5, but otherwise would be a move in the wrong direction

 

Yes actually. I need a 3/4 synchro and the shiftfork isolators as well. We are going to also do the the front main bearing cause my tranny guy didnt like the looks of the lines.

Just right now cant find anyone that has em cheap. Ford wants way too much for them.
