It sounds like your adjustment is fine but the return spring is missing. It is normal for it to grind going into first or reverse gear. There are no syncros on 1st in this trans. If your grease in the trans. is too thin it will make it worse. Before shifting into 1st or reverse shift partway into 2nd. or 3rd. & then complete the shift. This stops the clutch disc & trans. shaft.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.
