Ya'll were right, shift fork from my 90si tranny looks pretty unhappy.



I have a 92DX tranny (160k miles) and a 91HF tranny (190k miles) in my garage. Should I pull a fork out of one of those to replace it with? Will it fit?

Also, is there anything else I should replace while i'm in there? The EX trans in my civic shifts like a soapy slip-n-slide, while this one was about as nice (in every gear) as the same slip-n-slide, only placed on pavement, occasionally crossing a pot hole.

Also, any good write-ups around on this?

I see his last was at 2pm. How much of a sure bet is that? Cuz I really need to start sleeping off the weekend before work tomorrow...

Is item 12 in this diagram the ISB? Think I should pick one up as well since the tranny is open?

No it's not. You'll have to look at the clurch housing to find the ISB.

part 12 is the bearing on the opposite end of the input shaft. http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com...gry5=MT++++++CLUTCH+HOUSING-+DIFFERENTIALpart number 15 on this page is the ISB. Might want to get the seal while your doing it(part 21).

Is it worth replacing while I have it open? I didn't notice any problems with it, though idk what to look for. Tranny (100k mi) may have been abused by previous owner since it had a broken shift fork. Anything else I can replace to make it a little easier in and out of gear?

Which fork do I want? The broken one is lowest on the stack of gears (i really don't know the terminology) I can't tell which that is on this exploded diagram.

Or you can use the whole shift fork assembly out of the HF tranny.

Would you reccomend stealing it from the hf tranny? it does have 193k miles....

 

[transzex]

depends on how the HF was cared for..... it could be perfect or worn/broke.

If good, you can just swap the WHOLE fork assembly....which is why I like getting free HF trannys

It went through several owners, is visual inspection sufficient? I'll take it apart and throw up a few pics if it is.

dial calipers also help.......

How thick should it be? Which dimensions are important to measure? I can think of a few, but I don't want to miss anything.

 

[transzex]

what does the specs in the manual say?

I've gone through every manual I have and I don't see dimensions for a shift fork. What manual is this you speak of?

Is it easier to replace the entire shift fork assembly?

 

[samuraiz]

I tried this manual, it actually has info on the forks, but I don't see the stock dimensions (I assume thickness is what i'm looking for?) I certainly don't remember seeing it in my Haynes or Chiltons but I don't have them on me right now so I can't be sure.

 

[transzex]

use the sticky Luke!

I know it's 92-95, but it'll work for that spec.
