There's a recent thread with an Excel spreadsheet of parts and part numbers for the transmission -

Near the bottom of the thread. The rest of the thread has some good stuff as well.

Don't forget you can thank Big Dale with the 'Thanks' button in the lower right of his mega-helpful post

Btw, if you'd like to order all of that stuff through Ray Crowe---- I can help with the international shipping. If you're in the situation where you can't get reasonable prices in-country. Shoot me a PM if I can help out

So my FD's trans 5th gear synchro is bad and I'm having all the synchros replaced just because, along with front and rear seals.

Is it necessary to replace bearings if the only thing wrong with the trans is the 5th gear synchro in the first place?

No you can just swap the syncro out .

Not necessary, but maybe something to think about. You have to pull them out to get to the syncro and while not as destructive as removing the rear wheel bearings, it does put a lot of pressure on them to get them out (unless they slip right off). Think there's a couple and they run around $50. You're call
