Where can you get them from?

The 2nd gear syncro is starting to go (grinds for a split second when speed shifting up, but not normal shifting). I'd like to see if anybody went this route before I went to Car-Part to get a used trans.

Under steer is when you hit the wall with your front end.
Over steer is when you hit the wall with your rear end.
Horsepower is how hard you hit the wall.
Torque is how far you move the wall.

I have heard good thing about the Honda brand trans lube that can sometimes fix this.

Maybe someone else who knows more about it will chime in.

Rivergate used to sell a complete set of synchros. Don't know if they sell them individually or not.
