87 zilla trans problems
« on: July 26, 2014, 12:07:39 am »
87 lt500 great condition. Runs good won't stay in second gear. I can launch out of first hit second
Pull then it slips into neutral. Something is wrong with second gear no visible
Damage to trans. Any help would be great.

Talk to motoman he'll recommend you just buy two used bottom ends to fix it! Lol then put the motor together to find the counter balancer gear not secured! Lol

LOL the gear is secured, too damn secured!  It's going to take Hulk to get this thing off.

Heavy duty impact wrench.

Mac Aw434  = 625 ft/lbs of torque, always does the trick (almost has as much as my Cummins).

Can pick up a decent used one up on ebay $20-$40 bucks
