Synchronizers Assemble (1st/2nd Speed Gear)Important:
^ Only disassemble the synchronizer sleeve from the synchronizer hub if there is a suspected gear shift concern.
^ For installation alignment, scribe an alignment mark on the synchronizer hubs and synchronizer sleeves before disassembling.
^ Mark the synchronizers clutch gears and the blocking rings with the corresponding gear, for correct diagnostic inspections.
^ Install the synchronizer components in the same location, if reusing.

^ Align the sleeve to the hub.
^ The sleeve will fit in only one direction on the hub.
^ The tapered side of the sleeve faces up, or toward second gear.
