I bought an overhaul kit from the rock-crawler/jeep guys in Logan UT N...... Can't remember just now the name. Any how it had everything you need to overhaul it except one syncro, third gear, I think. There are two versions early and late and it it the early syncro that is NLA. Anyhow the price wasn't too high. If you start swapping gears from various transmissions the gears that weren't originally mated will be noisy. So keep the whole gear set together.

Even in the best of condition these transmissions were not quiet but with good bearings they are MUCH quieter.
