install them correctly. The procedure includes staking the brass rings into the housing to secure
them. I have had that era syncro assemblies rebuilt by Anaheim Gear in Anaheim, CA.

However you need to look at the synchro. 1952 and earlier used a 2 lug syncho, 53 and 54 used a 4 lug synchry and 55 and up used a completely different synchro. If this is what you have the 3774720 should fit. They are getting scarce, but there are a few NOS around and some good used. 50 years ago, I replaced a lot of synchro rings, but now I would just replace the whole syncro hub. If you can't find anything, take a photo of what you have. i probably have one. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2009 Posts: 5,964 Gearhead, Stovebolt Tech and Parts Tracker, Mod for Swap Meet and GTT | | Gearhead, Stovebolt Tech and Parts Tracker, Mod for Swap Meet and GTT Joined: Sep 2009 Posts: 5,964 | Bornco - Guessing that your post is really about wanting to find a replacement for your 2-3 speed synchro? If so, we need to move the post into the Truck Parts Wanted forum as that's the proper place for such requests. Okay to move???

I am not in a position to rebuild the transmission and I don't know if my transmission guy wants to at this point.

Looks like you’re just fact finding on what’s needed, so we can leave it here and see about helping gather the info.
