t56 no 2nd gear

[BoostedTurd]

I've rebuilt these transmissions a couple times. I'm pretty familiar with the insides of them. Don't let a lot of stuff online scare you, they're relatively simple to work on.

Sounds to me like you stripped the teeth off your second gear. I doubt it's the shift keys in this scenario because that would make it either stick in 2nd or not go in. While you're in there though I would throw in the billet shift keys as the stock stamped ones ARE weak and known to break.

Throw a steel 3/4 shift fork in as well.. That was the failure point on mine with only 360whp..

Any further questions feel free to ask!

I agree, I think you stripped the gear. My old M29 T-56 did that while driving normally. You let out the clutch in second and nothing was there lol.
