Default Muncie question

I need some websites for Muncie 4-speed parts other than muncie4speed.com.

Thanks.

Chuck

google it and you will find more than you care to know about. Also try EBAY. That's how I always do it.

There are PLENTY of Muncie sources out there. BUT, trust me, there are none finer, or better to do business with than Larry Fischer of D and L Transmission. NONE! I have been rebuilding Muncies (and other 4spds such as T-10s) for nearly 40yrs. I've bought parts from almost everywhere (including Chev when Muncie parts were still available), and by far, Larry is my favorite person to do business with http://www.dandltransmission.com/
Give him a call and tell him I referred you.

Not to Hijack this thread, but what makes a Muncie pop out of 4th while crusing or decelerating?????? Mine used to and my father rebuilt it with a kit and it works. My buddys got rebuilt also but still does it??????????? Thanks Gordon.

Could be the linkage adjustment but I doubt it. More likely worn gear engagement teeth and sliders. If not the linkage, time for a rebuild. If your engagement teeth are marginal, torque lock sliders will help retain the teeth a bit and lower the chance of popping out. If you're not sure what I'm referring to, I have pictures.

Thanks Brian.... I do seem to remember my dad not liking one of the gears on his trans but he was a cheap kind of guy...

Default Please Read This

Apparently my first post gave the impression to someone I disliked muncie4speed.com. Let me CLARIFY before this gets out of hand .. I don't know muncie4speed.com, have never dealt with muncie4speed.com. As far as I know it's a fine place for parts. I was just looking for more / different internal pictures than I had found. THERE IS NO NEED FOR ANYONE TO GET THEIR FEATHERS RUFFLED!!!

SORRY.
