    I was cruising on the freeway the other day and got on the off ramp pushed the clutch in and couldn't get out of 6th gear. So I stopped turned the truck off and pushed in the clutch a bunch of times and still would come out so I just beat the shit out of the shifter till eventually it broke free. Trans seemed to be okay, I drove it the next day and didn't get the problem again. I searched other threads that had broke or bent the shift fork and they seemed to never get it out of gear but I was wondering if this is a sign of failure and a sign to save for a t56?

    Nope, I think a bigger lift, larger tires, and possibly a super charger will fix it. Possibly nos kit would help. That is definitely what the Oem engineer planned when he drew up the 6 speed trans.:D

    Already have the supercharger, you know I was thinking about moving to 37s and swapping my 7th injector to NOS, must be the trick :thumbsup:

    Maybe check that the short shift kit is ok??? I've heard of them breaking.
