Never a break, I sware
#3 transmission this year. This is taking its toll on me. 2 used one take a shit, so I bite the bullet and get a new t5z. Here it is, 6 months later, friday night it 4th gear starting grinding. Now tonight its sitting in my driveway stuck in gear.
Anyone know if these damn things have a warranty?

Wow, that really sucks man ... brand new tranny after 6 months and it was 4th gear? That's the gear it stuck in? Strange that would be the gear to go.
Damn man, probably not an option to get a tremec, huh?

acutally it started grinding 4th, then it got stuck in 3rd tonight, got it outta third, now its stuck in first. You can barely move the shifter even with the engine off.

You sure you adjusted the stops correctly on the shifter? Sounds an awful lot like bent shift forks to me.

Do you own a Torch Red FRC and tremble every time you drive under I75 on Hwy 60 and look in your rearview mirror? If so you are suffering from what is known as Cobraphobia.

the trany's aren't just built for power, they're a better built transmission as well. You don't haveto have a minimum hosepower rating to use one.
new shifter will help, but is it the same problem on each one?
