Thread: P11 trans won't go into 2nd gear...

I have the QG gear stack you need.... $330 shipped

Not to sound like an ass, but can't you get a trans for that price? I got mine for $300 last year...

^^The weak B13/B14 trans maybe..........

not a b15 or a p11 for that.

Good luck with that. Apples and oranges. I am just passing along my cost for the stacks.

Would anyone know why it will go into second fine and drive with the wheels in the air? If it was the actual gear itself I don't understand how it would spin the wheels at a higher speed.

The gears can be stripped but still contacting each other. So it can't transmit torque and slips when any load is applied to it, but without load it has enough friction to rotate. Best way to know for sure is to drain and see if any chunks come out and look inside.

I was just stating what I got our P11 trans for our track car for. Didn't know fruit was going to be involved

please dont go and buy a gear stack before inspecting the shift fork. if the fork is bent and u replace the gear stack, guess what?, ur still gonna pop out of gear. gears rarely strip unless u run the tranny dry and heat builds up. the most common reasons for popping out are a bent shift fork, worn blocking rings or gear clutch teeth. worn gear teeth would cause this but that is unlikely because in a transaxle the gears are always in constant mesh. (when u grind gears, its not the gear teeth grinding, its the syncro collar grinding the blocking ring teeth) so check the fork for too much clearance against the synchro collar and check the gap between the blocking ring and the 2nd gear. there should be a gap when the blocking ring is compressed against the 2nd gear. check the blocking ring teeth and 2nd gear dog teeth for wear. check the syncro collar where it slides over the blocking ring and 2nd gear dog teeth for wear.
